Point of order: Although the [person mentioned by you above] was the catalyst for creation of the EWS, the EWS is NOT an anti-anyone.. or anything.

I think that leaving off Carl's
..to which I will respond could be a significant abridgement. It is clear to me that EWS is a rhetorical response based in part to the perceived position that some umpires write as if they consider themselves superior to others. If your intention was to poke fun at Warren and Carl you appear to have succeeded. If I had a dollar for every time I have seen an umpire profess to "never again" post to a particular board or site I could quickly begin to reclaim my stock losses of the last week.
I may be wrong but I do think that the EWS has by now worn pretty thin but this is a free country so you can continue to use this moniker if you like. But I wonder if in a room full of people there is only one person laughing if there is anything funny. Jim
