It’s not restricting anything except the autocomplete algorithm, which doesn’t offer the phrases as candidates unless you’ve used them at least once in the app. Same thing that autocorrects to “ducking” until you fix it once manually.

Who appointed Apple as a ducking governance body for autocorrect though? It’s supposed to be a good autocorrect, not judge what you’re trying to write or make it harder to write certain things.
