Comment (by czarate):

 > I'd like to revert r61828 and simply change the option default value if
 that's the desired change.

 The desired change is a bit more complex:

 Enable RTC by default for everyone:

 1. Even those that may have previously visited Settings > Writing and
 clicked save (for any reason).
 2. Even on hosts that do not run upgrade routines.
 ([https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C18723MQ8/p1771506588384619|"Slack
 thread"])

 Point 1 requires that we change the option name or write a migration.

 Point 2 strongly suggests that we remove the option from `schema.php` so
 that we don't run into this trouble again (if we decide to switch back to
 opt-out for final release). Instead we can rely on passing a default value
 to `get_option`.

 I agree with the cognitive overload of default-negative options.
