If those use cases exist, they are rare. So a customizable option,
off by default, would be useful, I think.

Yes, but if the prompt for the buffer offers the MRU buffer as the
default, all one needs is type RET RET (the first one to invoke the
command, the second one to accept the default buffer), which is faster
and more efficient, I think.
