But, like I said, I don't think changing the language is as important as enforcing the current law.

Am I the only one who thinks that "enthusiasm" sounds like "orgasm"? Well, it's better than Ms. Kaplan, my bio teacher from the 9th grade, who never could say the word "organism" properly....

(She told guidance that she thought I was crazy, and the few times I handed in a lab report, failed it because I got the wrong results. WTF? I did the lab, I wrote down what happened, what did you want, for me to lie? So I don't mind mocking her.)

Do tell two things.
(a) Do you have yod coalescence after a dental fricative in 'enthusiasm'?
(b) Does GenAm have an epenthetic phonetic schwa in the [zm] cluster?
