It is well-known as a result of the expert reports in US v Google that generally software users do not change defaults

Whereas providing an option or a setting that the user must locate and change doesn't really mean much. Few users will ever see it let alone decide to change it

For example, why pay 22 billion to be "the default" if users can just change the default setting
