WHy does this need to be about sides among believers? THe change was important enough to make. The change does not alter the primary message of the book. Perhaps the change was overdue, perhaps not. THe Deseret News article someone linked makes the point that Richard Evans spoke in 1957 in a book of the nephites and lamainites as among peoples in the new world. These are all ideas worth discussing, but why don't we just discuss it rather than polarize into groups?
