[racket-dev] [plt] Push #28706: master branch updated

add1 is fine compared to (+ ... 1), imo, because the name tells you
what it is doing, but maybe/c doesn't. It just sends the signal "you
aren't in the club if you don't know what 'maybe' is". Maybe if there
was another name that made that meaning clear I would also be in
favor.
