No argument from me, other than about the ever earlier Poppy Twitcher sightings each year. The British Legion, who administer the Poppy Appeal, declare on their site that on Remembrance Sunday:-
Starting at 11am, the service honours the service and sacrifice of our Armed Forces community, the British and Commonwealth veterans, the Allies that fought alongside us and the civilian servicemen and women involved in the two World Wars and later conflicts.
As to the Poppy Appeal itself:-
Poppies are worn as a show of support for the Armed Forces community.
Their Fund so their call to my mind, though I once replied to a German Air Stewardess's question as to, "Why are you wearing that flower?", that it was to remember the dead of all wars. Upon reflection that still works for me, though it was simply being politick at the time.
You pays your money and you makes your choice...
