We don't know what "most people" will want, except what we heard
during the poll.  And no one said anything like that there.

FWIW, I'm using show-paren-mode for eons as a global setting in all my
modes and buffers, and have nothing negative to report.  So evidently
at least for some this is not as annoying as it could seem.

Mode hooks is the usual method.  And yes, I'm talking about personal
customizations.  Nothing wrong with that.
