Morphology

uninclusive = inclusive (transparent) = un + inclusive

The prefix 'un-' clearly negates the meaning of 'inclusive', making the word's meaning straightforward.

Etymology

Uninclusive starts with un- meaning 'not' and comes from inclusive, from include, which means 'to make part of a group'. So uninclusive describes a rule or attitude that does not include everyone and makes some people feel left out.
