Political fights over "default settings" are so interesting to me.
On the one hand, it seems silly because everyone has the option to turn off the defaults.
On the other hand, the default setting is an incredibly powerful behavioral lever.
Maybe I just hate people.

It seems especially relevant when both sides ostensibly want more bitcoiners to run their own nodes. That will inevitably mean more nodes run by less technically knowledgeable people who just accept the default settings.
My Spidey-Sense is definitely going off with how the Core folks are behaving, but I don't have the technical savvy to rely on more than my intuition.
