So while a master is a specific type of owner, the term owner itself does not have the same meaning as master.

  So we can safety replace "master/slave" with "owner/owned", right?

In the case of replication, it would be better to use the commonly accepted terms primary/secondary or primary/replica.

Depending on the context, other usable terms to replace master could be

    agency
    hive
    primary
    conductor
    captain
    schemer
    guide

And for slave:

    operative
    node
    worker
    replica
    drone
    handler
    steward
    emissary
    doer
    mason
    coordinator
    conscript
