" Trigger Warning: The material presented in this lecture uses explicit language and discusses certain situations in database management systems that may be triggering to some students."

Understood. I meant to make a distinction between commonly accepted terminology, and free-form text where the author chooses to make controversial statements. And yes I'm aware of the existing controversy over use of master-slave in technology documentation.
