“I can’t think of a good reason to do it, other than the ‘wow’ value.”

We need a good ‘wow’ from time to time. Do it.

Spelling it with the added “h” was an automatic “F” on any paper handed in to my first Anthropology Professor.

Must have been after my time. My prof would have given us an "F" for leaving the "h" out. Neanderthal is derived from the old German for Neander Valley (Thal) where the first one was found. Modern German says "tal" instead of "thal" though many anthroplogists have refused to use the new spelling.
