Right, although this is about compromise.  I want the feature for as many
users as possible.  If I have it on, I will hit 90% of the installed SELinux
Base.  If I turn it off by default I will hit < 1 % of the installed SELinux
Base.  If I compromise I can get 50 % of the installed base to use it.

People do not tend to change the defaults when it comes to security other then
loosening it.
