But why bother?  You can't be assured that some update or process won't go about changing them back on you.  Then, you'll be scratching your head again. 

Does the cron job to roll log files reset things?  Don't know...and I don't want to care.

I prefer solutions that don't require changing things over which you don't or may not have absolute control.
