Why does everyone assume it's "eternal" or "never ending"? Each time the euphemisms change, it's due to more inclusivity, more empathy, and more attempts to understand the plight of others. It's reasonable to assume that it'll stop at a point when we reach the right terms. It probably has already, and I just can't think of any examples off the top of my head...

True if the terminology becomes more accurate, but a euphemism for euphemism's sake is the equivalent of sweeping dirt under a rug.

Not really. Euphemisms don't necessarily need to be super accurate. We can leave that up to the people who are researching such disabilities.
