+1 to Option #1
I'd argue that good software has what I call "good factory defaults".
Pine was a good example of this. It allowed people to use email right out of the box with plenty of options for customization in it's config settings.

People don't change defaults, and actions which can be destructive should not be easy to invoke accidentally. Even (or especially) on a CLI.
