That there is ambiguity at the edges does not disprove NPOV. Day fades
into night, but they're different things. This template is blatant
advocacy to violate NPOV, and indeed to do so across all Wikimedia
sites. They had it up on the main page, too.

It's reasonably clear that there is a deep and serious discussion very
much needed regarding neutral point of view on ace:wp.
