The ever so PC room booking system at work asks if you would like specific features in the rooms.

You can ask for a chalkboard.

You can ask for a whiteboard.

Why is that? Its not acceptable to call a board that is black in colour a blackboard, but it is okay to call a board that is white in colour a whiteboard. If a blackboard is now a chalkboard, surely a whiteboard should become a spiritbasedpenboard?
