All,

In the case of Ubuntu (and Debian, I suppose), this probably trickles
down to Mint as well, Heavy Water operations often find that the
defaults are poorly constructed examples copied straight from the
source code of the original software; even moreso could cause great
damage if deployed and used in a system without understanding the
implications of defaults.

I definitely don't hold my vendor in such high regard! Frankly; I'd
like to strip or bypass config files (& service definitions) out of
packages altogether. The asset-bundle or omnibus-stack packages we
build are generally created in this manner.

Hear hear! I definitely trust more the Chef community to come up with reasonable defaults--and still expect to have to tweak it.
