[slf4j-user] Why 'simple' uses standard out?

hello,
I'm wondering whether it is om purpose for slf4j-simple.jar to use the
standard OUT stream?
* Log4j12 uses by default standard OUT but it is configurable.
* JDK14's console handler uses by default the standard ERR.
I think an un-configurable logging sink should use the standard ERR because:
1. It doesn't collide with console apps that utilize the standard out
for processing.
2. It is the default of JDK and the Unix way (i believe for the above reason) .
The change in code is a trivial one.
