You genuinely want AWB to do this automatic replacement for you.

In the main namespace, and most every other one besides, there is absolutely zero argument for silas. That's confusing to new users who will encounter it and think that you must pipe trick to get the lower case s in the link. It causes hella bot maintenance problems later on, because bots are not expecting erroneous linkage like that. See, if you were trying to replace linked instances of, say, silas with islas, you'd have to use a regex trick to take care of both silas and silas. Alternately, if everyone simply linked the right way — or regular maintenance with your bot enforced proper linkage — then your replacement term becomes much, much simpler and doesn't require regex at all.

But hey, never mind all that. It comes to this: silas is wrong and silas is right.
