Agreed. Master being a bad connotation to some people are not the problem of the word itself.

Some time if `main` turns out non-inclusive, changing it to other term is counter-productive.

They must change to the source of bad connotation itself if they want to really contribute to those they claim they are helping. If the bad connotation `master` comes from slavery, then fight slavery or slavery-like acts to get rid the bad connotation from the term `master`.

I don't understand why this is not a common sense. Smh
