Either you think there is a problem with the term or you don't. It's not "Oh I do think that the term is offensive in the same way that I think saying my organization is all white is offensive, but I really am ok with that. I just don't like how she said it was the schools official title."

Also, the key to those two terms being different is the use of the word predominantly. W/o that word the term is absolute and without exception, which can be inaccurate. However, with that word it is description that implies most, but not all, which is accurate.
