I also haven't seen any solid argument for collapsing any navboxes by default (except perhaps those in the topnav which pop up on mouseover). It removes a small % of links from the overall nav - roughly 7 out of 50 - including some popular ones like upload-file. It would be good to see regular spot-checks of what sort of use the toolbox links get when default-expanded vs. default-closed.
