The question is not whether the use of privacy addresses (temporary addresses) should be enabled by default. Though some OSes do that, I believe. The question is, where a host *does* have both a temporary and a non-temporary addresses, which one it should prefer by default. "Prefer by default" in this case means "select as the source address for new outbound connections in the absence of specific instructions to do otherwise".
