Why are they silly?

I think it's generally considered bad form to have many horizontal lines, or *any* vertical lines, in a table. I confess that the first thing I do after inserting a table is to block the whole thing and delete the borders, then typically add just a horizontal line under the headings row. So I for one would be happier if tables were born naked as babies.

Doesn't this change default behaviour that we have had for a very long
time?

Yes, although it's default behavior of the interface rather than default behavior of the compilation process, if that makes sense. (Put another way, it will not affect any existing documents.)

However, perhaps there should be a preference option whether new tables are generated with/without lines (say, a check box in the table insertion dialog and maybe something that says "remember this choice")?
