Also, I think we should add:

c) does it make the game more or less fun

Worrying about using correct noble speech makes the game less fun for 
me.  It's a pretty anachronistic game; if I wanted a real simulation of 
actual Medieval Life I'd probably join the SCA or something.  Perhaps 
this feature should be on for the Far East since as a "Pure RP" island I 
could see it wrecking someone's life to read un-noble language, but for 
at least one realm I play in, 75% of the chatter is deliberately and 
joyfully anachronistic and quite fun.
