Comment on If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"?

Absolutely I’ve already learnt it, and I don’t intend to stuff around translating. At first it’s one thing, maybe not cumbersome but then many things become a hassle.
Master and slave are not in and of themselves offensive words. You just assign offence to them, based on certain specific context, again proving my point.
