> A SEELANGS subscriber wrote to me a private message: "Your constant
pronouncements on "correct usage", which amount to nitpicking about a
couple of letters, are even more ridiculous than the v/na Ukraine debate
in Russian."

What can I say?

I didn't realize it was a book title. That's all.

But I don't see why you call this issue "ridiculous". All of my
English-speaking friends from Belarus find "BeloRussian" EXTREMELY
offensive, and virtually everyone in my friends circle uses
Belarusan/Belarusian (pronounced with an "s", not "sh") in English. And
as you could see from the article on pravapis.org, according to Google
most people already learned the proper spelling.
