The disconnect messages were originally removed/ignored by clients on
update from version 6770799 to the latest two versions.
Don't believe Eric ever said why disconnect reasons were removed in the
first place but there were some rumours floating about.

It is unintentional for it to do anything on the client. There would be
no purpose to a client ignoring disconnect messages from a server.
As mentioned earlier in the thread, this will be fixed in the next update.

tl;dr if possible, it would be ideal if client side default is 1 and
server default is 0

The difference that I understand between the client and the server
convar is when the client sets it to 1, they will receive the reason
from the server. when the server sets the convar to 1, they will
receive reasons from the client.

It would make sense to me for client to always be able to
receive server disconnect reasons, since the issue was in
clients sending reasons to the server. so if the issue has not
been resolved directly, then the servers shouldn't receive
messages from clients by default. If server owners need the
reason, they can still retrieve one from the player disconnect
event.

I've just done more testing myself on one of my live servers
and I'm
more sure this is meant to be a client convar as it's only
showing when
the client is setting to 1.
When both client and server are at 0, returned value is
generic d/c message.
When client is at 0 and server is at 1, returned value is
generic d/c
message.
when client is at 1 and server is at 0, returned value is
kick message
as specified by admin.
When client is at 1 and server is at 1, returned value is
kick message
as specified by admin.
Keep in mind I'm going off of a server with SourceMod
installed, where
the KickClient() function can pass a custom disconnect
reason, and I'm
not 100% still, based on the rather vague description of
"Show client
disconnect reason" as it's not clear if it's intended for
use by a
server operator or client as there's no toggle in the
settings menu (or
adv. settings) for it on the client's end.

So if I can correctly from the discussion so far in this
thread, setting
net_disconnect_reason on server side, is basically just for
the purpose
of having the reason show up in the server side logs?
Yes, also to show in chat to other players. It was never
supposed to be a
client-side var according to its description (and to
Joshua's replies in
here), it affecting the client was an oversight.
