Will it be ok to do such replacement?

This sounds like a technical information being encoded into the joke. I
did not get this information while reading because I did not understand
the joke.

May you please point me to the place in Gnus manual that explains what
kill files are?
I only found the following, but there is no explanation what kill files mean:
8.13 Kill Files
===============
Gnus still supports those pesky old kill files. In fact, the kill file
entries can now be expiring, which is something I wrote before Daniel
Quinlan thought of doing score files, so I’ve left the code in there.
