Give the option to turn off the 'cute speak' in dropbox paper

Surely I'm not alone in finding the tone of the in-built instructions/suggestions in Dropbox Paper infantile, patronising and annoying? To be clear I'm talking about things like: 'even superheroes have sidekicks@someone'
Dropbox paper has been a Godsend during the pandemic, and I am so glad that my company has adopted it. My company employs a wide range of people, different ages, genders, ethnicities etc. We're not all in the same consumer demographic. We don't all buy innocent smoothies. 

When I start a new paper document, I'm confronted by language that I find not only annoying, but hugely distracted. My focus is lost, as once again I'm faced with cutespeak. 
Please can there be an option in the settings to turn off cutespeak, and replace it with simple, bland, instructional language, for those of us for whom the current tone is so unappealing.
