Inconsistant BIDS specification

There is inconsistencies in the BIDS specification between the information here:
https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/stable/
and here:


For example, in the file name format for the fmap files.
The first source seems to be compatible with the validator included in fMRIprep, but why are they different?

The specification on readthedocs is leading, the starter kit “only” serves to provide examples that make it easier for people to get started. Feel free to update the starter kit to make it consistent. It is a Wiki, you can press the edit key in the upper right corner and make changes.

The spec always leads.
Please make an issue in the starter kit or go ahead or correct any inconsistencies.
