The "default" choice is an upstream one.

https://github.com/google/mozc/blob/master/src/unix/ibus/gen_mozc_xml.py#L227

The packaging for Debian/Ubuntu happens at Debian, and Ubuntu builds the
thing using the same source as Debian.

So if you want to suggest a change, you should probably file an upstream
issue:

https://github.com/google/mozc/issues

Or possibly a Debian bug:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=ibus-mozc

But before you do, please understand that there is no perfect default
configuration which is right for all users. As regards Ubuntu the
current configuration works fine in some typical cases:

* If you do a Japanese install of Ubuntu, the jp layout is added
together with Japanese (Mozc). My impression is that Japanese users
often use the jp layout for typing English.

* If you do an English install of Ubuntu (and don't have a Japanese
keyboard), you probably want the layout you are used to for inputting
Japanese.

In the latest ibus-mozc version, you should not edit mozc.xml to change
it, but there is a user specific configuration file:

$ cat ~/.config/mozc/ibus_config.textproto
engines {
  name : "mozc-jp"
  longname : "Mozc"
  layout : "default"
}

So.. If you bring your suggestion to upstream or Debian, please post the
URL here for tracking purposes. The change you suggest is of such a
nature that we won't do it in Ubuntu only.

** Changed in: mozc (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New
