I don't think it makes a difference.
Musk isn't concerned whether we think X is the same that Twitter was. His whole point was to usurp Twitter's reach and pervert it to the cause of spewing toxic shit. The old Twitter means nothing to him, just the users do.
And for the most part, the users are the same ones as those of the late Twitter.
So I think calling it ex-twitter, xitter or anything else doesn't have an impact on anything. My preference to call it Ex-Twitter is mostly just spite.
