The folder /etc/defaults/ contains many such files, and is there essentially to add config settings which apply to the startup script for a particular service.
By default haproxy doesn't do anything useful, in fact it's worst than that, it's a massive security hole, which would block up several ports on your machine and route requests from them to several example IPs. As such, until it's been configured specifically for your setup, it would be very bad for it to run at all. Hence by default it's ENABLED=0. Seems sensible to me. Sorry to be argumentative.
