Hi, I am afraid I have to differ on this if I may. This is the gist of it.
The term master has been a part of English and English speaking culture for a very long time. Unlike " slave" this term "master" has no connotation to anything related to race, creed and so forth. It is widely used in the literature I believe this has been discussed in Spark forums before. Otherwise we may end up replacing master tournaments with leader tournaments, master class with leader class, master craftsman with leader craftsman and so forth. Personally I don't believe it will make any significant contribution. We should bear in mind these terminologies are interpreted as they are used and within the context they are used.
