Funny enough, I had a conversation about this exact topic about 10 years ago with an extreme leftist coworker.
He said we shouldn't call them users due "negative connotations."
I told him that he should worry about actually doing his job rather stupid gay word policing.
He got mad and left. Ended up quitting in a huff like 3-4 weeks later when I shit talked him for not only coming in late but then spending 3 hours recompiling his OS for no fucking reason.
The IT sector can really breed some stupid douchebags that's for sure.
I will never give up "Master/Slave" in electronics terms.
