Why do you think that common pg-users doesn't care about their data?
Also why do we have wal_level=minimal fsync=on and other stuff?

Because Postgres will not run without WAL files and the setting is the least you can have. Doing so you lose the ability to do archiving/streaming replication, which can be argued is a data safety issue.
