I understand ethics quite well. I think YOU however don't. You cry foul because it seems like they "STOLE" something that didn't belong to them. BUT neither did the ORIGINAL city that Kuntz stole. Nor has Tolkiens heirs taken umbrage at D&D when they put out their "elves" "dwarves" and "halflings" which they have copyrighted. That's an ethical and legal issue but no one talks that much about this.

They're the bad guys because they aren't changing the name.
