Some of my fairly recent family would have had slatted shutters on a non-slave associated actual plantation (as a generic name for productive woodland - this one being rubber trees) in an appropriate climate, and in that context I have no problem with the things themselves, but the name and the context that they're currently used in the UK - for me personally is a problem.
