If that were the argument, fine. I’m only taking issue with trying to wedge “vinyls” into established (spoken or unspoken) rules of English to try to make it “correct” in this context. It’s not; having said that, does it matter? Not especially, to me, but the original premise is flawed. We can all agree for example that “rekkids” successfully communicates an idea too, but that doesn’t make it “correct” until or unless it achieves much more mainstream usage.
I also think that (to my knowledge at least) “vinyls” isn’t an artifact of a specific cultural vernacular a la AAVE, so there’s not as much imperialist baggage in debating whether it should be used.
