Comment:

 I just came here to submit this exact issue. None of our themes use Post
 Formats (and I think they're becoming rarer and rarer). When users visit
 Settings->Writing, though, they are presented with a variety of Post
 Formats that don't even really exist and mean nothing, and thus a
 confusing setting that has no impact.

 I think the Default Post Format option should only exist if the current
 theme supports Post Formats.
