Please stop putting words in my mouth. I've never once said that my choice of spelling is "better" or "exotic" or that Middie is "wrong". I don't even understand why you're choosing to make this an issue. Midii and Middie are simply alternate spellings of the same character from the same series, and therefore are both right.
In fact, there's only one reason that I spell it the way I do, and that's simply because it's the spelling I'm used to; I first read Episode Zero long before it was officially translated. This is where I picked up on the M-i-d-i-i spelling. The entire fandom used it until the English version came out with the Middie spelling. I'm not the first person to spell it this way, and I won't be the last.
Heck, I've seen people use a wide variety of alternative spellings for her name. In tags to me. And I've never said a word. Because it really doesn't matter.
To be honest, I find it a little ironic that your criticism is essentially doing exactly what you're accusing me of.
