We went through the same problem a few years back with industrial =
robots.
When two robots are run from a single controller, the "lead-follow" =
relationship
was made clear by labeling the robots "Master" and "Slave". This has =
been
unacceptable practice for about five years now.

This was hardly offensive compared to:
The six axes of the robot have been identified as "S,L,U,R,B,T". These =
letters
often come up on error screens. The earlier 4 axis models did not have =
the=20
"R" or "B" axes, this made for an embarrassing bit of name calling when =
the=20
remaining 4 letters were displayed.
