Nobody is stopping you from using master, you can do whatever you want. The author even recognizes that very clearly in the text.

You can name all your default branches `megazord`. Hell, you can fork git, call it "gitzord" and enforce your `megazord` branch as The Correct Main Branch Name for every user. Feels good to be free, doesn't it?
