You seem to want to document the technical problems that may come up.
I have no interest in doing that.  All I know is that it tends to create
problems so we discourage minor modes that are enabled by default.

If you can come up with a good reason why it may be *useful* (as opposed to
harmless) to have a minor mode enabled by default, please enlighten us.
