The following reply was made to PR misc/22332; it has been noted by GNATS.

In my totally unofficial opinion, having 8 virtual terminals is twice too many for most people. I can't imagine a user sophisticated enough to "need" 24 tty's who isn't also smart enough to take the 3.5 seconds to edit /etc/ttys and HUP init.
