Copilot purposely stops working on code that contains hardcoded banned words from Github, such as gender or sex. And if you prefix transactional data as trans_ Copilot will refuse to help you. ๐Ÿ˜‘

Specifically, it will not write the word "Gender" where it will write "HomePhone".

Maybe there's some setting that's causing us to get different results?

Edit: saw your note about U.S. exclusive and that could definitely be it.
