If you would use opt-out for existing users, I know that would gain a lot of negative attention for Wikidata on the Dutch Wikipedia (Wikidata is still a very sensitive subject there). For new users I don't think opt-out is such a big problem. They don't know what Wikidata is and don't have the feeling that they get something forced upon them by the developers once again. Exisiting users on the Dutch Wikipedia tend to get that feeling when something new comes, they didn't ask for and gets implemented by default with or without opt-out possibility. Trying to get awareness for Wikidata and to get Wikidata accepted isn't by forcing Wikidata-things on existing users.
This feature should be announced at least in the Tech News as that gets read a bit more than the Wikidata newsletter on the Dutch Wikipedia.
