If I understand correctly, if a user switches that feature on, any undefined variable would automatically become a symbolic expression. But on sage-support, I have far too often seen posts of useres that mistook symbolic expressions as something that they clearly are not: A universal tool that is the best for every purpose. Having that feature available would encourage the misconception about symbolic expressions. Thus, I find it a very bad idea and wouldn't support it.
