I agree completely, and for the same reasons (I have to say though that that
article needs some careful proofing). Falling back to default config
settings is just lazy, and sets you up for problems later on (when you
migrate to another server for instance, or update your existing one). Nobody
assumes register_globals is on anymore either, and that's a good thing.
