No matter what they called. as long as the value will representing bitcoin's name and it will speak for itself. It's ok if people called it digital gold or bit token. In the end they will know the right name it's bitcoin based on bitcoin values or functions CMIIW.

Never okay with it that is like letting morons call tomato a vegetable and let them get away with it. Never I say!
Financially speaking absolutely...your FIAT, the note or coin in your pocket is a token. Not going to get economic in here, but it's a piece of metal that represents a value...a value that it doesn't have...it's a token.
Bitcoin is a currency not an asset which means is a coin.
Token is used for Ethereum based smart contracts as unit of an asset.

You should just call it an alt coin
I am not sure why you or anyone would call bitcoin a token at this point in time. It has been almost 10 years since bitcoin came out so it is far from a token. Now there is plenty of new coins that are called tokens and im fine with that as they are new. Some of this new tokens hold my attention like this angel token that i see potential for and growth.
Newbie Here, But I Care Nonetheless Whether you want it to call Token, Coin or BItcoin. For me the Important part is that they all Contribute to Currencies inside the internet. And as a Newbie I would gladly accept the Offer of Sending Individuals who lack knowledge On How Cryptocurrency Works or should i Say "Crypto Re-Education Camp".

Why is this an issue?
Bitcoin is the proud leader, "tokens" are for the ETH Bubble Game. Calling Bitcoin a token is not even technically correct. That does matter to some people.

Popular use of the word "token", in this community, is/was related to "ETH ICO bubble things", not the creation of Satoshi known as Bitcoin.
BTC = Bit COIN not Bit Token
"...bitcoin closed Tuesday at $4,009 per token — twice its price in July..."

Bitcoin is a type of cryptocurrencies. But Token is kinda sort of a reward from bount campaign or stuffs like that. It is used to exchange to other types of crypto currencies.
You are right token is different from cryptocurrencies because bitcoin is kind of money where you can use to purchase a thing and tokens are the rewards that you can obtain in some Campaigns. 
Call it whatever you want. It is still worth a massive amount of money.

It is really a very great platform to know about CryptoCurrency and recent markets. I am very much happy to it
Majority of the bitcoin investors or you can say holders have come to know about this currency from different sites, in short again the credit goes to internet for making all of us aware of what is going in the world. Bitcoin is undoubtedly very interesting thing and majority is investing into it for the reason that it is highly profitable. There are many examples in which bitcoin has changed the lives of people altogether.
for me bitcoin is the diamond 
what I don't understand why all tokens support only Etherium wallets!! It's confusing me. 
I think to bitcoin the name of the token fits no more than a cow saddle

I first heard of bitcoin from a website article.In that article,i was first introduced to this digital currency.After monitoring the prices of bitcoin,it became a great thing of interest for me.
Same here. It does not not really matter what it's called as long as it stands for the same idea. Personally though, Inorefer for it to remain as "bitcoin"

It doesn't really matter to me what it's called as lonh as everyone recognizes and distinguishes it as money. Bitcoin for.me is catchy on itself token kind of sounds premium. Anyway, no matter what it is called, as long as it makes a lot of money to people, you can call it whatever you want.
Well, it doesn't really matter whether you call it a token or not, the thing that matters is you know the gap in significance and advantages between bitcoin and other coins (in short, the difference of the two). For me, bitcoin is not just a token, I prefer to call it a "money" because it already exceed the capabilities of a token. Bitcoin is so powerful that it can do what a fiat money can do compare to the hundreds of new tokens spreading in the market that you still need to convert to btc first in order to become more beneficial.
It's ok to bitcoin being called a token but always remember that bitcoin is always in the top so you should stop to compare it to other tokens because they are not on the same level. Bitcoins already have a legacy which others don't have.

Bitcoin isn't a token like the other scamcoins. Bitcoin is a real currency which is being traded by the thousands daily
