Not the main point, but this is the first time I've seen "allowlisted". Lol
...are they trying to avoid saying whitelisted because of the word "white"?
Just like "master" in git. WTH is wrong with it. I feed "master" as "the master of kung-fu" is much better then "main".
Because the terminology is Master and Slave. That's been device terminology for half a century, and has been phased out over the last decade. It's silly to complain that they would change it.
I now say Primary and Secondary for device terminology, and Main, Stage, and Dev for branch terminology. It doesn't impact my daily life enough to be mad they don't keep Master/Slave terminology.
