So we would need unblock votes for the f-word and a-word.

Which already failed fairly recently. That's what I don't get. Why are abbreviations treated differently then the words they represent?

If the a-word is blocked all derivatives and abbreviations of that word should be blocked as well. This would make the policy much simpler and overall more consistent. They... they are.

Before Knight went around intentionally looking for a heinous word that was unblocked so that he could put up a CV and pat himself on the back.

The reason this word remained unblocked was because nobody, in the history of this wiki, used it. There was no need to block a word that never saw use.
