That's pretty awful. I'm glad the industry is moving away from such discriminatory language. More recent examples of removing bias include:

* Renaming master/slave to central/peripheral

* Avoiding gender in code comments and documentation, e.g. "When user clicks, log him out" to "When user clicks, log them out".

* Being able to disable animations globally, for epileptic users.
