And I agree with Greg. Again.

But in British English, that '500 year old colloquialism' is current idiom.

Where I sit, it carries absolutely no hidden meaning or (a more modern idiom) "dog-whistle politics".

I really don't think using a 500 year old colloquialism "cheapens the
discussion."  I also find it ironic to find this admonition in a
discussion about, inter alia, freedom of expression.  Political
correctness, trigger words, and other such stuff are a not
inconsequential threat to freedom of expression and freedom of ideas --
starting with a kernel of good intentions, and then becoming quite
damaging....
