Argument For: Toby has used the term himself, and it's already used significantly across the wiki on any pages that mention it. It's also a popular term in the fandom, even if No Mercy is also popular.

A lot of arguments against the use of the term are saying Toby requested people not use it which is a blatant lie, so...

I can understand the problems with the origin of the name, but the fact of the matter is, the route itself is a genocide of the characters in the game, not just showing No Mercy. It also provides a stark contrast to the True Pacifist and Neutral route names because this is the worst and most horrific route, as implied by the Genocide name.
