concern: Not directly related to the PR, but these are miscategorized. These religion-based lines are under the Racist table.
change (techincally scope creep): Can we add a catch-all table and move the religion ones there?

That's a good idea! I'll create an issue for it. #555

When I look at the rendered file (scroll slightly up from this anchor), this line of the table isn't rendering.
I'm seeing a newline at 79, I bet that's the culprit.

No, this is intentional. The bot doesn't include anything after the newline, by design. The web table is meant to include history or references for why certain terms are in the bot, and the bot points people to the table to keep the message more compact.

change (scope creep): Ever since I started working in a repo that auto-alphabetizes its yaml keys, I'm finding myself wishing these tables were alphabetized by "Instead of". Feel free to ignore that for this PR, I just needed to say it.

Definitely ignoring for this PR, but if you wanted to reorder the markdown file, I don't think that'd be a problem! Then locally, we'd delete the yaml file and have it regenerated from the markdown. We'd need to manually re-add the exceptions from the diff, but it should be pretty minor.

@mgwalker Kind of can't believe you got to this so quickly. Also aren't you on vacation?? |
