Honestly, some writers have gotten pretty creative with censorship. Firefly’s use of “in universe” curses are a good example.
Plus such classics as the tv edit of The Big Lebowski’s “Find me in the alps!”
I would prefer no censorship, but that’s no reason to disregard the fine work of creators trying to make the best of a bad situation.

I can just imagine it now. Me, in my little hard hat, on a big ol excavator, paying no mind to the ROPS/FOPS overhead, completely safe from all the debris that wants nothing more than to crack open my noggin, excavating to my hearts content!
Oh what a day that would be!
80% of violent crime? Cute. Lesbians are busy cornering the space crime market (allegedly).
Absolutely!
What’s great about The Good Place’s “censorship” (imho), is the joke would work even if they weren’t actually being censored. I get that it’s a unique advantage of the shows premise, so it’s more of an exception than the rule, but damn if it isn’t well played!
