Comment (by arma):
I could imagine a "UseBridges auto" default, which is a tristate that sets
it to 1 if there are some bridge lines, and to 0 if there are no bridge
lines.
Aside from the "different people want different behavior" issue in the
comments above, another challenge we would have in changing the default
behavior is that current people expect current behavior. For example,
Debian users want to be able to upgrade their Tor and have their torrc
file continue doing what they expect.
So if we want to change this default, we will need a plausible path for
mitigating this issue (perhaps like we did for the ExitRelay auto world in
#10067).
