High loads are accepted, yes. The coverage is down to ZL 17 for US. The world wide coverage is Landsat right now, which is also default. Over the first half of the year we're gradually going to improve high ZL coverage in Europe and the rest of the world.
The Landsat default is more historic than really useful nowadays. It was useful to get coastlines in far north and south.
Other opinions? I neither have strong opinion for nor against making that default. Currently it seems very US centric, but probably making it default is ok.
