Yes, we can change the default to t on master. But that would also
require to adjust a few doc strings, see below.

See below.

I suggest
When enabled, 'package-install' will include in the list of
upgradeable packages those built-in packages (like Eglot, for
example) for which a newer version is available on GNU ELPA. By
default, this is disabled; however, if 'package-install' is invoked
with prefix argument, it will also include built-in packages in the
list of packages which could be upgraded.

The last sentence should be qualified by "...unless invoked with a
prefix argument".
Thanks.
