I'd say there's a difference between "bother or offend" and "found offensive". Breaking it down further
> 20% "Yes, a lot" > 11%, "Yes, somewhat" > 9%, "Yes a little"
20% 'a little or somewhat bothered' is a lot different than 20% offended
If we trust Wikipedia that Latinos are 18% of the US population and 20% of that population is "a lot" offended by Latinx, we get down to 3%. I'll grant that I was incorrect in my 99% assumption, but 97% isn't much better.

This to me smacks of elitism and making the intention more important than the effect.
