Indeed.

Whenever I take a car, I don't have to think about how it's configured,
and where is the whell, the brakes, the lights and so on. All cars are
more or less identical in this repect. You hopefully don't have to get a
"per car driving license".
So if Xavier analogy leads to a conclusion, I think that conclusion
would be that we are right in the way we make some decisions about
defaults.

I already said that, I won't bloat the software for 100% of the users
just to please less than 1% of them.
If you don't like the way xfwm4 works, feel free to use another EWMH
compliant WM that pleases you better.
