> Germans are Nemci in Russian as well

I wanted to check; are you implying that Russian is not a Slavic language?

No, GP is saying that Russian uses the Latin root for Germans, I'm saying it doesn't. (it does for Germany though: "Germaniya").

I think I may have fallen victim to a GP midflight edit - I agree with you fwiw, it’s a stone cold fact.
