Comment (by mattdm):

 I think it's softer than "unmentionable" -- it's not a _legal_ liability,
 at least. I'm not opposed to Christian's suggestion of just avoiding it in
 marketing and official written communication -- that's why I started with
 just sending this to marketing. However, I found that it's really hard for
 _me_ to do that and then also not accidentally slip into the habit of
 writing it or talking that way to the press. That's why I thought it
 easier to have an alternate term we just use everywhere.

 However, if that's not what people prefer, and if it's just _me_ with that
 problem, I can try harder at compartmentalizing my vocabulary. :)
