I'm really expanding on your point - that two humans can't even agree here. The AI probably has even less chance of resolving the multi-factorial scenario we're in.

AFAICT, Respectify is trying to address improvements via leveraged grammar using minimal context. Dis/agreement is incidental.
eg
* Noun1 is great.
* Noun2 is great.
Ideally would result in equal outcomes.

Even for “ice cream” and “genocide” as the two nouns?

As I understand the purpose, yes.
You completely ignored the whole point of what I said, which is that even in a simple statement like "This person sucks" it added its own implicit connotations, namely that disliking someone who happens to be black is implicit racism. Imagine trying to learn how to really argue with that kind of teacher.
