According to quick googling, this is exactly on the spot. Here's a Guardian article that talks positively about those roles and describes them in exactly the same way: > A sensitivity reader is an additional editor [...].

(emphasis mine) Source: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/mar/08/stop-moaning-sensitivity-readers-diversity-publishing https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/mar/08/stop-m...
