There is no plan for -rc3, so any such change will be final. I can go either way. "git revert -m1 78a26cb720" on top of v2.31.0-rc2 may be a safer option, especially if it reverts cleanly. But if your "let's flip the default" can be sold in a convincing way, I think that is also safe enough, as I recall I carefully vetted the patch to make sure that the behaviour would be he same when the feature is turned off. Assuming that "let's flip the default" patch indeed correctly flips the default, that is. IIRC, there were two and half levels of configuration involved in the code, and I did not validate that your patch turned the right "true" into "false" back when I read it. Thanks.
