Thanks for the response! I'd imagined reasoning along those lines. I'd perhaps expect that people anticipating such high load that gzipping output is problematic would be investing enough time in server setup to review and tweak these options. And for everyone else, compression by default is a good starting point. Moving from Nginx (HTTP2 off by default) to Caddy (HTTP2 on by default) you'd already need to review your setup if running a highly trafficked site to ensure any reverse proxied servers can handle the additional request load due to multiplexing. But it's obviously a trade-off and there's lots to weigh up...
