Oh nice, I never thought of that. I would love to see the list of these unacceptable words, I can almost understand it not wanting to type out "fuck" but iirc they were also not autocorrecting "abortion" at one point which is a little ... conservative

And usually a misplaced duck is less harmful in a polite/business setting than a misplaced fuck. “I saw a fuck on the road on the way to work” in work chat is a different type of embarrassment than “what the duck were you thinking you ducking idiot” in a personal text.
