I applied this to a local copy of notmuch-show.el (notmuch is installed
on debian via apt here) and then eval-defun:ed the function. After that
no inline default display. Seems to work nicely. notmuch version 0.23.1.

By chance it can be easily answered, if I want to use the latest notmuch
installed from source, does it seem like a suitable procedure to do
this;

sudo apt-get remove notmuch
... do the source install and re-run notmuch new. It will probably work
smoothly with the setup I have?
