The difference of WAL generated is way higher between
archive->hot_standby than hot_standby->logical. And unlike replica,
logical decoding is not something that is widely spread in user's
deployments to justify changing to such a default. At least that's
what I recall on the matter.

I don't recall any discussion on this matter, but my memory may fail me.
