I can think of a few more!

"register" - might indicate that someone has to register as a second-class citizen, enemy alien, etc.

"bit" - might imply that someone is only a 'bit player', leading to feelings of inferiority.

"tool" - an obviously offensive word meaning that someone is only fit to be used by others.

"terminal" - we need to be sensitive about words that bring up the concept of death, to avoid triggering effects.

"inheritance" - individuals are not the product of their ancestry!

"class" - we don't need a class-structured society, that's a leftover from a feudal past.

"polymorphism" - too close to hermaphrodite, must be eliminated.
