Vetted causes, I agree with you that Sinergia shouldn’t be deleting column W, especially at this time when this is happening. I think they should put it back up and add more explanatory comments if necessary.
That said, I think you are perhaps assuming too much bad faith in this whole ordeal. It seems extremely plausible to me that an ESL person would confuse a small word like this and I think you are coming at this from a perspective where you are assuming mal-intent and are finding corroborating evidence for this.
If you look at ACE’s response, Column W was never meant to be shown in the public version—they dropped the ball by forgetting to follow their standard processes for redacting things at charities’ requests for confidentiality reasons—and the recent deletion was an action they took, not Sinergia.
