The very group you're referring to are people who would shit on Metroid for being PC SJW bullshit because it had a black protagonist, Samus or not.
So since they'll be angry either way, why not just make it Samus?
No...I was referring to hypothetical fans who were outraged that they weren't playing as Samus is Federation Force and would, in this hypothetical, be outraged that a character they like is changed.
Likewise, from my perspective it's always more likely that hesitation to changes like this is met by false accusations of sexism or racism before anything of the sort happens, and when you're called sexist or racist just because you don't want something you liked changed, you're not gonna self-reflect, you're just gonna get even more mad. Heck, it happens enough and I could easily see some associating anything that's deemed "PC" or "progressive" as being the pushed for by the same type of people that insulted them.
