lol, 11 pages all about a piece of plastic lettering. I guess Nissan's brainwashing does work if you are honestly offended. It's all a marketing gimmick. If you've ever been a part of any type of business, you'd be familiar with this tactic. It's nothing but pomp and circumstance. If Nissan had named this the "Nismo Package" instead of calling the car the "Nismo," I don't think this would even be an arguement. At the end of the day, this is something someone in Japan just came up with out of thin air. Nothing stoping you from doing the same.

....same with the 40th. In Europe it was called the Black edition for the exact same car (mostly).

OP, put the badges on if you want. If anyone ask, say it's a Nismo replica, lol....and if that still bothers you, drop some turbos and say it's what the Nismo should have been.
