Although I agree with you that detailed settings are definitely debatable, 
I'd say that at least it would be a more reasonable starting point for 
scripting than the default configuration which is more interactive usage 
oriented.

So even if unperfect, one is free to update defaults to suit more closely 
their needs, eg "psql -B -F ':' ...", at least most of the scripting 
conviniencies are already there.

I think that such a scripting mode should also imply --no-readline.
