FYI - there's nothing "anti-inclusive" about East/West.

In Qt I proposed a change which added properties to an object. Those properties 
in my change were named "Left"/"Right". The reviewer objected to those names 
because "scripts which are not Right-to-Left exist". So the reviewer required 
the names be changed to "First"/"Second". Very similar to that claim that 
East/West is somehow a marker of "Supremacy". Of course, even "First"/"Second" 
can be painted as "Supremacist" by someone sufficiently motivated.

Names shouldn't be chosen based on who makes claim to offense on behalf of some 
other group or population. If you decide to do that, then you can't use 
Left/Right either, nor First/Second.

Please restore East/West as options. People can use whichever the want in their 
config depending on what they are least offended by, if that's what they want 
to make decisions based on.
