The answer

There is no harm in the phrase "akramakum Allah" (may Allah honor you) when mentioning something repulsive because it is a form of showing respect to the مخاطب (addressed person), similar to how people in the Arab Mashriq say "akramakum Allah" when mentioning a dog. However, this etiquette has no basis in Islamic law, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, addressed the Companions and clarified rulings regarding dogs and the prohibition of the meat of domestic donkeys without using such phrases. Similarly, Allah Almighty did so in the Quran.
