For any designer to think he can do better than the web browser makers who
made the default defaults equal to what ordinary users prefer, and virtually
all the same as each other, is ludicrous. The minority of users who find the
default defaults excessively different from what they find acceptable should
be able to discover a solution, while the majority have been given
approximately or even exactly what they prefer. Thus, assuming users have
actively configured their own browsers to suit their own needs is immensely
less evil than the rude imposition of a designer's arbitrary fraction of
their defaults.
