There’s only a certain kind of person who would find “master bedroom” offensive or harmful.
When I was a young kid (born in 78, was probably 4th or 5th grade) I wrote a letter to the President. I can't remember who was in office at the time. But I got a letter back and they addressed me as "Master <Last Name>" which was a formal title at the time. I hadn't heard it before but I remember looking up what it meant and why they would use that term.
My favorite part of the article:

Peoole who score high on moral elitism and a need for recognition need to give me back my master branch (and my blacklist too, preferably).

Yep, they are black. You can just say it vs hinting at it;)
Not according to my observations...
In my experience that’s not it.
