People may not be aware that while the guidance has been withdrawn, the table of examples included in the document has not: https://www.nist.gov/nist-research-library/nist-technical-series-publications-author-instructions#table1 That table is under a section titled "Plain Language" and is explained as "The table below displays how some sentences could be edited (or not) to incorporate plain and precise language.". e.g. replacing "whitelist" with "allowlist". This framing of "plain and precise" could be considered clearer and less contentious (and therefore more likely to be adopted by authors) than the framing of "inclusive".
