Yes.  I believe that the default configuration should not generate
errors or warnings
when MariaDB is started.  Version 1:10.11.6-2 has one of each (see below).

And I agree with you that upstream option values should only be
changed if there are compelling reasons.

Thank you!

Hi Daniel!

Do you think this change is still needed?

Do you want to participate in some open source development/testing to
make it work?

The Salsa-CI autopkgtests shows that this change affects the default
mariadbd server command-line parameters:
https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/merge_requests/61

Hence I did not merge this and it is not included in 1:10.11.6-2
