I appreciate your efforts but I don't think we need to come to a solution, in the sense of a compromise. We're not a political body trying to agree on a joint statement or a policy. By its nature rpg-ing is very individualistic - every game is different.The point being, let's stop arguing over interpretation and focus on solutions, which are far easier to come to agreement on.
The solution to the problem of disharmony and long, angry threads on ENWorld is for the mods to ban discussion of the topic. This, in fact, was the approach until recently. Any thread that turned to the subject of "are orcs racist?" would get locked. And I think that was perfectly reasonable. Mods are human, have limited time, and don't want unnecessary hassle. It's the same reason religion and politics are banned.
Wizards of the Coast have already made their decision with regards to published D&D content.
