Better defaults for feature requests

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.

Strong agree. Good defaults beat a wall of toggles every single time.

Following this thread closely. We are about to face the exact same decision and the replies here are gold.

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.
