Every day there are thousands of students learning about more programming things and allow list and deny list are 2 things that are that much simpler to grok.

Direct names are good. It’s very explicit what those lists are for. It takes no cultural context. It takes no mental leaps.

Tech has so many things to learn, making concepts easier through naming is good.
