I hope, we continue to leave such decisions to the maintainers of the software rather than micro manage them with a committee. FESCo should not be (usually) be overriding maintainer decisions.

Maintainers should also (usually) be listening to the community.
Community is not a single entity. It is a very diverse set of independent people with sometimes very strong opinions on both sides.
Rahul
And the many strong opinions need to be heard by the maintainers. If there is a strong opinion, as this diverse thread has shown, then that is a strong indication that a decision should be revisited and if no change is made, then say why with the facts and data to support it. I haven't seen a real strong indication in this thread why the default behavior should be as it is, only why it shouldn't be, tho it does seem to be a simple matter to turn on c-a-bs. The question revolves around defaults and which it should be.
