[nitpick] Inconsistent branding formatting. The branding is formatted as italics *randomforge* here, but elsewhere in this PR it's formatted as bold **randomforge** (e.g., README.md line 12, NEWS.md line 6).

For consistency, use the same formatting convention throughout. Recommendation: Use bold **randomforge** when referring to the initiative/brand, and code formatting `randomforge` when referring to the R package.

The heading structure is inconsistent with the introduction (lines 34-38). The introduction mentions three main topics:

1. Install and try the package
2. Contribute to the project
3. Use GitHub effectively

However, "Option A" and "Option B" are now level-3 headings (###) under "## How to contribute to randomforge", which makes them appear as subsections of topic 2. Since Option B explicitly covers "Use GitHub effectively" (topic 3), these should either be:

• Level-2 headings (##) to match the structure suggested in the introduction, or
• The introduction should be updated to reflect that topics 2 and 3 are combined under "How to contribute"

Consider changing these to ## Option A:... and ## Option B:... to maintain consistency with the introductory list.

	### Option B: Contribute via Fork (recommended for most users)

[nitpick] Inconsistent branding formatting. Throughout the PR, "randomforge" is formatted in different ways:

• As italics *randomforge* (line 36 in R/pkgname.R, line 218 here)
• As bold **randomforge** (lines 3, 12, 26, 65 in README.md, line 6 in NEWS.md)
• As plain code `randomforge` in most other places

For consistency across the codebase, establish a single formatting convention. Recommendation: Use bold **randomforge** when referring to the initiative/brand, and code formatting `randomforge` when referring to the R package.
