i think that if the general aragonese population found out about the etymology of baturro (bato aka 'stupid' + urro which is a derogative suffix) they would try to explain it away with "well, we've reclaimed it now". but reclamation can only happen if you actually know the meaning of the word and how its used against you. or they would say that no one cares about the original meaning of the word anymore. because thats how much aragonese people (especially zaragozanos) hate ourselves
