It is Lasher's opinion that it should be spelled one way or the other. One cannot simply choose to spell a word according to what it brings to mind. Would you spell the word describing the removal of a certain brand of polishing wax from your car as "desimonizing" or "desimonicizing," or "demoralizing" as "demoralicizing?"
