Maybe it just isn't worth it given the response.
It seems a lot deeper than mere conformity.

I totally agree that it's not worth it. But much of it seems like outrage for outrage sake.
Michael Jackson is an interesting one, mind. I assume it's permissible for a white person to portray MJ from the 'Bad' era onwards, but portraying 'Thriller' era MJ and earlier would be a huge no-no, despite the fact that he always identified as black?
Anyway, like you say, hardly worth the bother. Nobody is going to die because they can't dress up as MR. T or Bob Marley anymore.

Don't know about MJ
I'm not sure he knew who he was, a person who appeared to have complex issues.
