Why bother...
Because FreeBSD also runs on hardware with minimal memory?
yes, but defaults should be for the masses and it is tunable for the rest
Because FreeBSD is a stable, sane operating system and we want to keep
it that way?
yes, but how does an increased buffer bring instability? You can use your
argument for every commit.
Because it breaks POLA?
how?
Because it make developers act sloppy?
How do you go from increasing a buffer to hold all the data which solves a
practical problem to people being sloppy?
I'm sorry (I'm not picking on you in particular, but this comment
represents a growing trend in attitude), but more and more people today
are becoming careless in the way they think (or not think).
I do not want FreeBSD to suffer because of that.
If you are a FreeBSD developer or user; be vigilant! Don't let the
sloppyness silnently slip into or favorite operating system, or the way
we handle it!

IMHO these arguments are more about general feelings than actual to the
point remarks.
