You can make the reverse argument too.

The default should be what most users prefer.  But that's hard to measure.
(I tend to believe that most users on laptops don't really want things

The only practical way to change this is if the maintainers decide to
change it, or if a user poll shows blinking is disliked (but the last
one is hard to do, so...)
