Origin aside, it's still used as a slur for a group of people now. Whether people mean it harmfully or not is kinda beside the point.

You can call it sensitivity, but "mindfulness" seems like the more apt term here. When knowingly using a word that is a slur to a group of people, you need to be conscious of intentions vs. impact.

Exactly right about the origins. The three letter F slur to describe gay men originated to describe a bundle of sticks. Then it was used to describe a cigarette.
