The “canceled” nature of the word is overstated, especially since it was never primarily literal to begin with, and using “supremacy” in social situations has been verboten my entire life (born in early nineties). Also as someone pretty deep into twitter outrage culture, I don’t see anyone mistaking “quantum supremacy” for dog whistling: this is just a PR department at work. Nature editors are far more to blame here than culture. That said “supremacist” is pretty dead, which I am fine with.
