There is no reason to add : yet more driver flags in order to "do the right thing". The "do the : right thing" case should always be default and a flag (sysctl variable, : etc) should be used for those who want "the wrong thing". The main reason that it wasn't added at the time was that it was expensive in terms of CPU utilization, so it shouldn't be on by default. There may be other reasons as well...
