True.

But "pre-emptively" is a bit misleading.  Please realize that the warning
is not about "this is a risky thing to do, you've been warned", but is
about "the behaviour to allow this may change in the future; if you rely
on it please set this config before that happens".  We may end up not
flipping the default for a long time, but setting the config also has the
side effect of squelching the warning, so it never hurts to set it now.
