Please do not make the change.  I think the current code is basically
right.  `inhibit-startup-screen' would be the wrong name for a variable
with all those options.  Having the two variables is not a bad thing.

The idea to change the meaning of t would be ok, but the doc should
add that this normally shows the *scratch* buffer.
