Quite possibly. I use the so called "proper" phonetics myself (though
prefering plain callsigns).

I'm just not terribly into telling people what they can or can't say on
the air as long as it is decent language.

Actually the DX station is not so much trying to tell people what to say as
telling them what works for him so that those calling the DX can maximize
their chances of getting through and the DX can maximize his results. I
personally would look at it as simply trying to facilitate communication.

Not communicating is not facilitating!
