Yes, that seems reasonable. I don't think we need much of an explicit "policy" for these things, though. Things that get _so_ ubiquitous that they should be marked default globally (as opposed to just being in a defconfig file for some board) are pretty rare, and them being "new" things are rarer still. Yeah, usb3 sounds like it would count, but I think that's such a rare exception that I don't think we need to make a policy for it, just a "hey, once or twice in a decade we have a new bus that became so common that we should update the 'default' to y".
