Anachronism, as the term is popularly used, refers to something that is out of temporal place. This word allows a society to label something that seems too old or before its time. The idea that communities and individuals have a say in what is appropriate for its own time is a benefit to our society as a whole.

There's no implication of chaos or anomie here.

So why all the animosity?

I see two different words, meaning two very different things. I don't see a problem, pryderi.
