Normally whether to use the lastest or previous kernel by default is

Well, I finally got a chance to check that file and it says:
UPDATEDEFAULT=yes
DEFAULTKERNEL=kernel-core
Not sure what the kernel-core setting means, but it definitely
looks as if UPDATEDEFAULT=yes was ignored.
If you were using a PAE kernel, it would have had kernel-PAE-core (or kernel-PAE). This matters if you have both PAE and non-PAE kernels installed. (Previously SMP kernels used to be available as well.) It says which varient should be used for the default boot.
I don't yet have an F21 system. But on an F20 system these are set to....
UPDATEDEFAULT=yes
DEFAULTKERNEL=kernel
If there is no package type of kernel-core then I suspect all bets are off as to the behavior.
For F21 the kernel team have changed how the kernel packages are split:
