Because that is the base of the WoT and there a legitimate use cases for this. You might also want to learn on how the WoT works to see why the keyservers don't carry any information on what you call "trust level" and what we call "ownertrust". Just in case you meant the signature class (0x10..0x13 aka generic,persona,casual,positive) the default is "generic" and you need to employ the --ask-cert-level option to change the default on a key by key case. Further, the plan is to replace the SKS software by hockeypuck on the servers. Thus the existing defaults are still good defaults. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
