*NEVER* change anything in /etc/defaults! Read (from
/etc/defaults/rc.conf):
# This is rc.conf - a file full of useful variables that you can set
# to change the default startup behavior of your system. You should
# not edit this file! Put any overrides into one of the ${rc_conf_files}
# instead and you will be able to update these defaults later without
# spamming your local configuration information.
Therefore, it is not a "better choice", it is the only choice.
