Seriously, I suspect the main reason Bret's characters were tolerated is that the only thing that indicated they were furries was their character picture.
If the few furries in our community affected by this are too "proud" to change a word or two in some bios and change some character pictures, good riddance.
In all honesty though, I think the rule might be a little too targeted. Although it'd be hard to write up something more generic without blocking a lot of valid roleplay, I feel the real issue with furries is that they don't belong in the Discovery Freelancer universe. A lot of other things don't fit in either that aren't necessarily furries, but those are currently not prevented by any rules.
I would change my artwork. Except I paid, for legal reasons of copyright etc, actual money to use some of the artwork. A bit of close to $200 USD.
Am I 'Too Proud' to change a word or such? Off the bat no. Cause I worked hard, actually worked hard, towards where things are today.
