T9 word is racist

One time last year I was writing my friend a text message saying something along the lines of "will you make me a late plate" (I lived in a sorority and if you weren't going to be there for dinner, you could have a late plate prepared for you). So, I was writing this text message and when I typed plate into my phone, the word slave came up as the first option. This means that whoever programs T9 word thinks that slave is more prominently used in the English language than plate. I don't really know what to think about this. Kinda shocked.
