Agreed, people get bizarrely up in arms over how git's 'master' doesn't have a matching 'slave' but also set max line width to 80 characters.

I don't know if you ran into this one but I was convinced to use 'allow list' and 'block list' over white/black list purely on the basis that its just a bit more descriptive. I sort of wish we could clean language up like this more regularly, just imagine a world where we didn't maintain the notion of an electrical current that flowed opposite to the flow of electrons. So tidy.
