Before reading it: why not make it the default?

Because it breaks a lot of things. Whether it's good practice or not, running module code at import time may be expected to initialize some code, setup listeners, build classes etc.

    The Proving Ground by Michael Connelly

    First time in a while reading a physical book. I usually read on a kindle, but hardcover was cheaper than ebook and i though itd be nice to read from a book for once, and i will probably sell it afterwards or donate to my local library.

    I didn't know this, and I'm sure a lot other people don't know this and that's why they fork - to have their own copy of the repo, thinking they have full control over it.

    I have forked projects in the past and IIRC i had to send a request to be disassociated from the original repo, otherwise all pull requests default to the original repo which is annoying.

    It's not attention addiction. Note that it's supposed to replace consumption with creative / problem solving activities. If you're addicted to watercolors, at least you will be getting better at the craft. If you're just consuming online content / doomscrolling you're just wasting time.
