ROTFL. I hope you're not serious.
Bad and dangerous defaults have no place in mature software. I think it
was Sun which spent lots of $$$ in usability studies to make the Gnome
people understand this.
"you can always uncheck it" have never been a serious excuse.
I hope *you're* not serious. The purpose of defaults is to establish a
baseline of application behavior, a known quantity. Simply because you
insist on the default value being different from the established
programmatic value, it does not necessarily follow that others share
your version of wisdom.
Calling an "option" an "excuse" is just whining laziness masquerading as
expertise. Change the value and move on.
