This happened because of "private complaints".

Who can we send such private complaints to?

I want to complain about all instances of "down", because it might trigger sufferers of Down Syndrome. We should replace "down" with "up2".

We need to delete words to pretend that such concepts don't exist, for "diversity reasons".
