Is calling the Pope's car 'popemobile' "undignified"?

[danwasd Pronounsthey/them]

So, according to Wikipedia: In 2002, Pope John Paul II requested that the media stop referring to the car as the popemobile, saying that the term was "undignified". Is it really "undignified"? Discuss

I actually like this car, it looks like a small yacht. So cool.

I'm screaming at this.

What is the harm? Everything has to be funny now, it's how we cope lmao.

If he thinks its a problem how about telling the media how it would be called. As I asume that calling it just a car wouldnt make him happy either!
