フィリア

It might seem inconsequential but is there any reason フィリア was rendered as "-philiac"? Kosuzu's theme, 判読眼のビブロフィリア, used "-phile" for フィリア. Beyond that I'm pretty sure -phile is more common and way more benign in these kinds of words (ex: bibliophile, cinephile, ludophile). In contrast, -philiac is more often though not always associated with paraphilias and unnatural obsessions. Not gonna give examples for obvious reasons but you can just search up "words with philiac" and immediately see what I'm talking about. I think it should be "Bulletphiles'". —Ennin (talk) 04:34, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
