You don’t have to self censor to appease others

Agree you don’t. But from a purely self-interested perspective, you might want to avoid phrases that to others indicate low effort.
True. Though, I self censor to appease myself as I have caught myself picking up claudisms. I was mortified when I realized that I had started to use "land" as a verb related to finishing some bit of work.
