True. I got lazy, and mixed together sentences that are addressing
both people in the cited material. Also, I didn't want to get into
the whole gendered pronoun issue. Not in such a short email.
P.S. I'd consider "goodlist" and "badlist" as replacement terms. They're
short, both in terms of syllables and characters. Even shorter than the
originals! That's a good thing. "Allowlist" and "rejectlist" both add
a syllable, and the latter also adds characters.
