    It's a Gundam reference, and one that I don't think I've even seen anyone wear as a title. (Granted, it's a very small title, it'd be an easy one to skip over in a crowd.) If you see people try to use it as a hate symbol, that sounds more like material to report than anything, but honestly it sounds to me like you haven't seen people use it like that either and are just assuming that somewhere out there, people are.

    Also, it wasn't added in EW post-patches: it's been there since 2.51. That was in 2015.

    Also also, not really sure how this is lore. But it's also come up here other times... for some reason.

    EDIT: Worth underlining, the Z used by pro-war Russian demonstrators is a very specific Z, it's not just 'the letter, at all, in any isolated context'. Back in 2022 Overwatch moved to remove that Z from a Russian character, but that's because... well, that character was literally Russian, and it was that specific Z. A title that's just the letter 'Z' holds neither of those associations.
