The guide seems to be for the Racket code base (https://github.com/racket) rather than general Racket code, so I don't think it should say "prefer syntax-parse over syntax-case".
I do think there should be a style guide for general Racket code (which could very well be based on the style guide for the Racket code base), and for this guide, it would make sense to say "prefer syntax-parse over syntax-case".
