Not entirely related to the content but man 'allowlisting' reads so badly. We should just out of ease of reading return to whitelisting.

I'm trying not to get nerdsniped, but in the realm of subjective pragmatics, I personally find `allowlisting` to be drastically more clear.

My concern isn't really clarity of intention, but that 'allowlisting' just doesn't flow as well when reading as whitelisting does.
