And nobody is really demanding people stop using "master", so far as I am aware

GitHub, GitLab, and git itself, are all using main as the default name of the default branch, by default.

Yes that is the point. They made the choice to change their default. You can still make the choice to name your branches, especially the main one, as you like. Setting it for a project is less work than complaining about it.
