Comment:

 >So while that ticket focussed on giving context to the message, this
 ticket is about finding a way to remove its insulting nature.

 I understand that difference however at the same time, I think #14530
 addresses both the context and the content. In the end it was decided to
 keep the "Cheating Uh" message but add context.

 What is or isn't offensive is highly subjective and relies on culture,
 experiences, language, knowledge, etc. For example, your proposal, still
 relies on culture understanding (which I honestly couldn't name which film
 or fully understand the joke).

 One of the great things is that this message can be changed to my
 knowledge, by hooking into to
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/wp_die_handler
 wp_die_handler()] or editing the translations for that string specific to
 your site.
