The best reasoning I saw for this change was for clarity for non native English speakers. If you're learning the language "allowlist" is definitely more clear in meaning than "whitelist"

Not really, at least in Spanish we’ve always said “listas blancas/listas negras”.

I don't know what you are talking about.

Even if our dialects (Mexican) didn't have vestigial racism and fake dichotomies, permitir y bloquear is as straight forward as you can get.

IT switched from white/black literally years ago, if your department didn't, you are quite stuck in time.

Sure... But unless you know what either of those terms means, it's just gibberish like ping.
