Comment(by demetris):

 Here is an impromptu suggestion from me:

 Leave it in for 2.9 and remove it in a point release if there are reports
 of confusion.

 This sounds flippant to me even as I write it:  it may seem we are using
 end users as guinea pigs — yet, upon consideration, it is not that bad.
 The new default post is not something that went in thoughtlessly, and,
 also, having it in a final release may be the best way to get good
 feedback — maybe not so much from end users (I suppose most would not go
 into the trouble of signing up in wp.org just to report something like
 this) but from people who interact with end users.
