Well the defaults matter quite a bit for new users... Defaults don't matter as much for existing users, they know what they want and how to get it. I know to just pull up apper or konsole and install Firefox. I don't care about me. I'm thinking of, and from the perspective of, new users. But new users? They're gonna know Firefox and Chrom(e/ium), anything else is gonna be an immediate moment of confusion.

Is it that much trouble for you to change your own default to the one you
prefer? Is your preference for extensions, and the bloat and potential for
bugs inherent in less well tested components in sync with a typical new
Fedora/KDE user? Have you tried Qupzilla? Most popular extensions are already
integrated in it, and yet it's a smaller package than other browsers.
