You should definitely mention it. Try to give a reason why, too, if you think they may need convincing (frex, so many epithets break POV, so if you come across someone thinking of their best friend as the purple-haired tennis-playing smaller ninja, mention to them that people rarely think of their friends that way! (of course that's an extreme example, but still, even stuff like the smaller man or the blond...people really don't go around thinking of people like that unless they're perfect strangers and they're picking someone out of a group)). It's a stylistic choice, sure, but it's pretty universally acknowledged to be a bad one. If they don't liste, they don't listen (I critiqued someone's fic once and they told me they liked all the epithets (about ten different ones referring to only two people) because it gave some variety, and there was nothing I could do to convince her, so I just told her, well, be aware that when you ask for crit, people are going to point that out.
