This is also not what happened. I remembered that she once was proud of her work and the fact that her image was used so widely. Then FOSS and engineering in general was targeted by a wave of cultural marxist psyops that brought us useless stupid things like CoCs. And within that wave she was convinced by "activist" (=operatives) to demand the retirement of her image.

It's the perfect angle to cause division and cause endless discussions about irrelevant BS. Congrats Psyop successfully deployed! (Probably CCP behind this in order to weaken western Engineering)
