I agree with your comments. It is interesting to note that when others “argue” about Yeshua vs Yashua, etc, that they often fail to remember that for 2000 years, the name “Jesus” has healed the sick and raised the dead!

I have found that there is an inital enthusiasm when discovering the beauty and strength of the name Yeshua, but later God’s wisdom takes over, and a more considerate use of the name takes place, depending on the audience listening. Although I am a Messianic Gentile and not a Messianic Jew, I sometimes deliberately use a mixture of the names Jesus/Yeshua when I am regularly meeting with the same group of Christians so that they may be educated (nicely) on such uniquenesses of our Hebrew roots.
