   > 
   > For symbol names and documentation, avoid introducing new usage of 'master / slave' (or 'slave' independent of 'master') and 'blacklist / whitelist'.
   > 
   > Recommended replacements for 'master / slave' are:
   >     '{primary,main} / {secondary,replica,subordinate}'
   >     '{initiator,requester} / {target,responder}'
   >     '{controller,host} / {device,worker,proxy}'
   >     'leader / follower'
   >     'director / performer'
   > 
   > Recommended replacements for 'blacklist/whitelist' are:
   >     'denylist / allowlist'
   >     'blocklist / passlist'
   >
