As for 'appeasement', it is in fact a better translation than non-arising because according to the context where nirodha is used, it can mean both non-arising as well as relieve, pacification... 'appeasement' is flexible that way.
the essence of nirodha is liberation

Now from the remainderless fading and liberation from that very ignorance comes the liberation from fabrications.

From the liberation from fabrications comes the liberation of consciousness.
From the liberation of consciousness comes theliberation of mind-&-body.
From the liberation of mind-&-bodycomes the liberation of the six sense media.
From the liberation of the six sense media comes the liberation of contact.
From the liberation of contact comes the liberation of feeling.
From the liberation of feeling comes the liberation from craving.
From the liberation from craving comes the liberation from clinging.
From the liberation from clinging comes the liberation from becoming.
From the liberation from becoming comes the liberation from birth.
From the liberation from birth, then aging-&-death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, distress and despair all are subject to liberation.

Such is the liberation from this entire mass of stress & suffering.
