Thanks for pointing this out, and we'll change it! We totally agree and don't think it's silly at all. Our policy is to use White and Black unless it's a specific player. Some older content may be out of date, and sometimes we err or the author knows who the player is but the reader doesn't.

Caissa: don't worry. i got u, bro.
