They’re not enforcing shit, they’re just letting people know that the word can have a negative connotation. This could be extremely helpful for a newer English speaker, someone from another culture, or god forbid someone who just wants to use language that won’t make someone upset.

Yep, it would have helped you to capitalize "God" and not offend Christians. Or better yet, not even written the word itself. You can use "G*d" to be safe.

A bit sacrosanct perhaps? But it is technically correct. We should give Google a nudge that they include it.

It's still a proper noun. It's dicier when you capitalize "lord" or "his."

A negative connotation amongst those whom subscribe to a very specific religious dogma.

> … god forbid someone who just wants to use language that won’t make someone upset.

Clearly “upsetting people” is not the metric.

It’s only considered a problem if you upset the people privileged under your particular ideology.

This is a nuanced take that I hadn't considered, fair enough. For people just trying to go along to get along in their communications and feel there are minefields everywhere, I could see this tool being a relief/helpful. I personally don't think that relief is worth the tradeoff, but I def can agree to disagree.
