I agree with Werner's recommendation of using --quick-gen-key and
future-default.

If you're going to provide an e-mail address-only User ID, though, i'd
also recommend wrapping it in angle-brackets, as raw e-mail addresses
are still liable to trigger some minor bugs in various pieces of older
OpenPGP tooling.  So that'd be:

    gpg --quick-gen-key '<b...@example.com>' future-default

Using the defaults (or the future defaults, as here) is a good
practice.  Most people shouldn't need anything fancier.

Regards,

        --dkg
