I think it is user's choice. I did not find any pre-settings.

It does on my side. To activate settings that I did on the fly, I had
to do twice M-x outline-minor-mode

I think that is users' choice.

I think that few variables are not customizable, but there is no need
for feature request related to headings for specific mode as
outline-minor-mode is a users' choice.

General settings could be better, I have already explained how it
could work, but it is up to developers to decide on it.
