    I have a third hypothesis to add to the mix…

    Disclude is a verb that means to exclude or omit something.

    https://www.oed.com/dictionary/disclude_v (sorry, paywalled).

      Okay, if a fucking dictionary is paywalled we have gone way beyond the red line for social recovery.

        “Recovery?” Now that’s an interesting thought!

          This is the correct response.

          Hell yeah Wiktionary. It’s my favorite by far. Got all the classic words, and also all the ones you’d usually go to urban dictionary for. What is based? Bussin? Lean? Rizz? Skibidi? 23 Skidoo? Wiktionary’s got you covered

        I don’t think the OED has ever been online for free. They took a different tack to Merriam-Webster and Cambridge, who figured that the ad money was lucrative.

        Getting annoyed at paywalling is understandable, but we can’t demand that companies make their stuff free just because we want it to be free.

      Those who use the verb discluded should probably be discluded.

      Even autocorrect discludes this as a valid word.

            From the context it is clear what you mean.

      Ditch OED, befriend Wiktionary

      disclude (third-person singular simple present discludes, present participle discluding, simple past and past participle discluded)

      (transitive)

      (now nonstandard)

      1. To disclose, make known.
      2. To separate, keep apart.
      3. To exclude, not include; to remove from inclusion.
