Let's use "exclude" for flags that really exclude records from our lookup. Let's use "avoid" referring to concepts that when flag is set we'll not use but we have a fallback path for that should yield the same result. Let' use "suppress" for suppressing partial info, even if we return the record otherwise. So far we used "avoid" for all these cases, which was confusing. Whiel we are at it, let's reassign the bits a bit, leaving some space for bits follow-up commits are going to add.
