99% of the time I’m like “seems like this word is confusing the issue can we try tabooing it” it seems like an excellent pro-social move to avoid unnecessary conceptual confusion.
The other 1% of the time I’m “oh no am I being the dad from The Giver😬”

i just watched the movie recently! i really assumed they made up a bunch of it to pad for time and then i read a summary of the book and it was basically all there and i just forgot
the movie gets to play directly with allowing him to see more color which is so cool. plus: jeff bridges and helen mirren

Unsolicited book recommendation if you want it—IMO the Greensky trilogy by Zilpha Keatley Snyder is a more interesting version of a very similar story
