Package name shows up in inclusive language scanner (kill) #41

Your package name shows up in our corp inclusive language scanner because of the word "kill". Please consider changing the name and deprecating the old package

The scanner included the following words for suggested replacement:

force quit,
force exit,
terminate,
stop,
end,
halt,
cancel

node-tree-terminate or node-tree-force-exit are two nice candidates

Thanks.

I have to wonder, How is the word kill not inclusive? I can kill a program, I can kill you, I can kill the Asian across the road, or kill the black man down the street, as well as kill my girlfriend? I would say it's a very inclusive word. it has zero discriminatory implications, neither in tech nor the real world.
