This is a strawman. Not the parent, but I'm pretty sure that their intent is that it's the default that should be flipped. At the moment, all agencies default to confidential, and only share their work in particular cases; the proposed change would be of making all the work transparent unless explicitly classified. As a good example of how this approach is implemented, see Gitlab, which share pretty much everything except personal data of their employees and customers.
