I think that it's reasonable to read the grandparent's post as meaning "defaulting to 'no' under certain conditions on the system". It would surprise me if there weren't plenty of users out there who have legacy workflows with antiquated antivirus software still running, either because they set it up and haven't changed it or because their local tech geeks set it up and they don't know how to change it. I know that, as I've tried gradually (and unsuccessfully) to ease back into Windows after a long time away, it's been hard for me to believe in Defender as a full AV solution, and my first instinct was to run old favourites like ClamAV as an extra layer of defence.
