At 7 rows it has room for real letterforms, which is what makes a header look deliberate.

About 6.4 columns per character. A five-letter word lands near 32 columns, comfortable in a README.

About this font

Taken from the credits inside Fender.flf:

Fender by Scooter 8/94 ()

Explanation of first line:

flf2 - "magic number" for file identification

a - should always be `a', for now

$ - the "hardblank" -- prints as a blank, but can't be smushed

7 - height of a character

5 - height of a character, not including descenders

10 - max line length (excluding comment lines) + a fudge factor

-1 - default smushmode for this font (like "-m 15" on command line)

12 - number of comment lines
