Why make it a variant and then make it the default? This makes it hard for anyone to deselect the variant since MacPorts does not record negative variants in the registry. If you want the feature enabled by default but want a way for people to disable it, code the portfile to enable the feature, and then have a "no_graph" variant to remove it.
