Bawolff's comment:

I strongly dislike setting this to something other than false by default. Two 
reasons
*People are going to forget to update this (Case in point, we are at 1.20 now. 
this is still 1.17)
*People (and by people I mean me) enable development warnings, because we want 
to see the warnings. It is not useful to show the warnings a year after we 
decided we deprecated the interface. I want to know the moment we deprecated 
the interface, because I don't want to make new code that relies on the 
interface.
