because it improves code correctness and maintainability, for which

virtual/final, there is no reasonable recourse.
Virtual by default makes it simpler to call method on object that is
not initialized yet (constructor not called yet). This situation is
possible regardless if virtual is default or not (it can just happen
more easily).
Yeah, it happened to me in C++ .. same with virtuals in the destructor.
Lesson learned first time tho :p
Me as well, I was used to being able to call virtual methods on the
constructor in Object Pascal and it took me a while to find out why
my C++ program was crashing, back in the day.
