I think a better suggestion is to add a new category within the “Script Editor” tab of Studio Settings which allows us to add/remove these important/specialty terms.

So that Roblox doesn’t have to maintain a list and we can use whichever terms we’d like. In addition to that, being able to set the color per term or even just one color for all the terms would be a fantastic addition.
