On the one hand side, I found the master/main discussion superficial,
needless, and detrimental; on the other hand, I couldn't care less
about the name of the default branch.  So I usually took whatever my
tool at hand suggested as its default.  So when it comes to SRFI 230
and SRFI 237 blame it on me.

To try to create some consistency, I've already set my defaults so that master is used when I create a Git repo for a SRFI from scratch.
