While we're on the topic, you have have been replacing Necessary Evil universally with Necessarily Evil. In most of the cases I've looked at, I think what you really want is Lesser of Two Evils instead. "Necessarily Evil" is a person who is evil (often profoundly so) because he feels he has to be to accomplish some greater end. "Lesser of Two Evils" is a value judgment, picking for an evil that is unavoidable something that does the least evil. Even then it's not always quite right, but it's closer to right than "Necessarily Evil". Plus, simply plopping "Necessarily" in where "Necessary" was makes for a grammar/usage error by itself.
