Still an odd accusation to me... How does that privilege say anything about ego, given that history probably won't remember the renamers specifically?

It's really dependent on the attitude of the renamers. Maybe they are honored for the privilege and take it seriously, others might think it's their god given right to name things and fuck the old names. That last one may be a bit extreme, and without actually knowing these people, the best option is to just not give a fuck and move on with life.
