I have seen and am adopting "cisallohet" as a replacement for "cishet" in the usage of people who don't want to target queer folks when they use a word explicitly to mean only not-queer, because asexual and aromantic are queer dammit and "cishet" is often used to target aces (who happen to be cis and heteroromantic) and aros (who happen to be cis and heterosexual). (I have no idea whether "heterocis" is used similarly, but that's also in my experience a less angrily connoted word than "cishet" even though they denote the same thing.)

How would we fix up "heterocisnormative" to make the same point? "heterocisallonormative"? "cisalloheteronormative"? Someone in #dreamwidth-kvetch is suggesting "heterallocisnormative" or "hetallocisnormative", but I'm not sure those flow? But then I'm not sure my two thoughts flow either...
