AFAIK, the current default has been there a loong time (it was there 2 year 
ago when I first met lily).

For me, it is a good default.. it has the benefit is that it saves 8 
characters when I write short tests.

So unless somebody can see a point in having a \score with neither paper nor 
midi output, I would (weakly) object to changning the default...
