I don't think it's that bad. This is one of the cases where your usual ignorance towards new/different things is pretty effective.
At least for me personally, 'less' was what I always saw everywhere being used, and had used myself many times before I discovered that 'more' was a thing.
And when I discovered 'more', it took me maybe a minute to figure out that it's pretty much exactly like 'less', but that I didn't like it as much, and with everyone else seemingly agreeing on that, I didn't put any further thought to it.
