It is objected to in some writing.

"Inflammable" is taught to be avoided.

So are things that mean opposite things depending on locale, like "tabling" an issue. It may be ok within a local group, but would be avoided in writing inside a multinational corporation.

Everything is objected to, that’s not sufficient for a decision. It’s the reason or volume of objecting.

Just saying there’s some objection is the Twitter fallacy. It could be one person, or even me, or it could be 100% of editors.
