Upvoted, not for your downvote, but for raising the point that these expressions can serve as conversational signals of what LWers call tapping out. (Tangent: "tapping out" in the LW sense is a terrible appropriation of a term from a different context, because in the original context it explicitly and literally signals submission.)
I've used "stepping out" in contexts where the LW usage wouldn't be understood.
Nice!
"Safewording" is another term that would work.
