I don't agree. This leads to Emacs being painful to use without large amounts 
of customization. Do many Emacs devs use an empty or almost empty .emacs?
Customizability is a strength, but the popularity of pre-packaged Emacs 
configurations (prelude, Emacs starter kit, Graphene, and countless .emacs.d 
repositories) says something about good defaults.
