I don't think your point is relevant here.

They speak the same language in China and Taiwan: Mandarin Chinese. The question is whether to use more Taiwanese-sounding phrases when traditional characters are requested.

A very similar (just more technical/less known) point that's pretty close would be enforcing Sanskritised Hindi written in devanagari on anyone trying to use Persian-influenced words or Urdu. (Or vice versa.)

This seems purely political and obviously divisive: Taiwan (& HK) has its own history and China doesn't want it to.
