What the fuck? “Grandfathered” as a term predates the voting usage.

Companies prioritizing inclusiveness can encourage a move away from problematic terms in materials and/or learning sessions – recognizing that calling out the need for change isn’t about shaming but about removing barriers to productivity and success. Inclusive replacements companies may use instead “grandfathered” include “exempted,” “excused,” “preapproved,” “preauthorized,” or “legacied.”

of these, only "legacied" perhaps begins to approach a similar definition

I get shit in the mail that says I'm preapproved for a credit card, that doesn't mean that I owned that card previously and due to my long continuous usage I am afforded privileges based on old rules that new subscribers don't get
