We would love to change the defaults, but unfortunately that
boat has already sailed a long time ago. If we could do it all
over again, I'm sure a lot of defaults would be the opposite of
what they are today. But we can't reasonably change that now
without massive breakage of current code.

My opinion is that the current situation is not that bad: it's
some sort of bottom-up approach.
Almost always, in a company, programmers are under time pressure
and rushing, so I bet that almost always they will add a @system:
on the top of the module.
Maybe not true, but It come in my mind the Java "throw Exception"
parade in function declaration....
