and other than that many people use clean/smudge filters to make git
happily and efficiently deltify compressed file formats (such as gz,
bz2, zip) and still keep compressed checkouts...

Let the defaults be as they are (fit for source control in the proper
sense), it's easy enough to change them for other use cases.
