Although I agree here I think the issue we're having isn't what is better or
worse but the idea of having a "singular" default which has a choose or
loose kind of connotation which doesn't have to be the case.   I think your
earlier idea of having something which gives users a chance to give feedback
about their level of knowledge about Blender is an elegant solution to the
problem.

Would there be any willingness from a dev to implement something like this?
 How hard is it to do?
