It looks like someone did a PR in 2021 asking them to change their language in their build instructions to be gender neutral and they locked it to say that that was not the place for 'ideologically driven requests from new accounts/non-contributers'. The same person said they wouldn't be against that PR in 2023. The team then changed their docs to use general neutral language, as far as I can tell.
While it's still a huge red flag, I'd be interested to know if you're aware of any other viewpoints or specific actions from other devs from the project.
