Am not so sure about that. Perhaps for some people. But I can see
many users using a configuration tool that takes a user selection.
Although in principle it is user-defined, the settings might not be
best for emacs display. We might be expecting users to learn too much
for what they consider as just a tool like the many other gadgets they
use nowadays. Have suggested the possibility that emacs also provides
defaults.el for light and dark theme. At least they could start from
something better than is currently provided.
