The NRSV CE is even worse than the NAB as far as inclusive language.
The NRSV CE may be bad but the RSV CE is great. The NAB, on the other hand, is a very liberal translation and even has heresy in some of its foot notes.

Now that is weird. I just checked my Catechism and they use the RSV-CE for that. I remember someone telling me they use RSV-CE for encyclicals so I looked up Dei Verbum and the citations don’t match my NAB.

Does the US have the largest single aglophone Catholic community in the world? That’s the only reason I can think of the Vatican would favor the NAB on their website.
The NAB was published 6 or 7 years after the Catechism was written.
