I don’t really understand what you’re getting at.

Obviously there are words which are in themselves an insult. There are also words which are not, and there’s a spectrum of different words in between which are more insulting or less insulting or insulting in specific circumstances.

Undocumented migrant is clearly a more dignified way to describe someone than describing them as an “illegal” immigrant.
