What about White and Dark Chocolate?
Are we changing these names ?
Yes, that's totally comparable.
My bad. Dwarfism is ok but dwarf is offensive
Don't think it is. There is even a sports association:

From Wiki:
The appropriate term for describing a person of particularly short stature (or with the genetic condition
achondroplasia) has developed euphemistically.
The noun
dwarf stems from
Old English dweorg, originally referring to a being from
Germanic mythology—a
dwarf—that dwells in mountains and in the earth, and is associated with wisdom, smithing, mining, and crafting. The
etymology of the word
dwarf is contested, and scholars have proposed varying theories about the origins of the being, including that dwarfs may have originated as nature spirits or as beings associated with death, or as a mixture of concepts. Competing etymologies include a basis in the
Indo-European root
*dheur- (meaning 'damage'), the Indo-European root
*dhreugh (whence modern German
Traum 'dream' and
Trug 'deception'), and comparisons have been made with the Old Indian
dhvaras (a type of demonic being). The being may not have gained associations with small stature until a later period.

The terms "dwarf", "little person", "LP", and "person of short stature" are now generally considered acceptable by most people affected by these disorders.
[17] However, the plural "dwarfs" as opposed to "dwarves" is generally preferred in the medical context, possibly because the plural "dwarves" was popularized by author
J. R. R. Tolkien, describing a race of characters in his
The Lord of the Rings books resembling
Norse dwarfs.

"
Midget", whose etymology indicates a "tiny biting insect",
[35] came into prominence in the mid-19th century after
Harriet Beecher Stowe used it in her novels
Sunny Memories of Foreign Lands and
Oldtown Folks where she described children and an extremely short man, respectively.
[17] Later some people of short stature considered the word to be offensive because it was the descriptive term applied to
P. T. Barnum's dwarfs used for public amusement during the
freak show era.
[13][36] It is also not considered accurate as it is not a medical term or diagnosis, though it is sometimes used as a slang term to describe those who are particularly short, whether or not they have dwarfism.
