The reason why we use 'private' is that it's the kernel default for
years and it's what has been expected by users for long time before we
introduced --propagation and any unshare(1) default.
The current --propagation default unifies things and makes unshare(1)
portable to distributions where root fs is mounted as 'shared' (e.g.
systemd distros) and all this in backwardly compatible way for users
who have no clue about --propagation.
So, I don't think we want to change any default to corrupt scripts where
is no explicitly specified --propagation.
