Hi,

> Why is it disabled? 

Because 

 (1) we have our hands full with fixing the development release and
 want to concentrate on it

 (2) we should already know about the top crashers in stable releases,
 and the ones which just occur randomly or very seldomly are not a
 good target for stable updates anyway

 (3) we want to avoid people filing bugs and dozens of duplicates in
 vain

 (4) automatic bug reports are always a potential privacy issue, which
 is more concerning for stable users.

Sure, you can turn it on in /etc/default/apport.
