It only derails threads because some of the people who don't like the word decide to get pissy about it. It's not the word that derails the thread; it's the rude people.
Let me give you a counter example. The dash in "e-reader" bugs the heck out of me. I've never said anything about it because I am trying to be polite and because it doesn't really matter (it's just a word). The people who are being rude over the word "lisuese" really should do the same.
