I don't have time right now to address the broader inclusivity discussion, but I just wanted to note that, at a minimum, some non-inclusive scripts could indeed be "interpretable as racism." That said, I agree with the wisdom of case by case.

I mean, yes, of course... but also if you take it further, literally any and every text, written by a white person, ever, and especially before 5 years ago, that either doesn't include non-white characters or, worse, does include them, could be "interpretable as racism"... so yes, let's stick to the case by case.
