Sure, but in the context of daemon processes that's not the one default:
that's just one of many many.

Are you saying you don't ever want any packages to change their
default?  [Sounds rather draconian to me.]

Are you saying that there's some kind of debian default which you're
trying to preserve?  [If so, what is it? ... note that if this default
is "reasonable behavior" then the definition of that default is almost
always what we're discussing.]

Or are you saying something else?
