 staying as it is sounds like a good balance.
 Surely that doesn't solve the problem that you yourself pointed out:

 doesn't work on WordPress, but does in other places

 If we introduce an option then the default setting needs to change to get
 any benefit from it. The kind of people who copy and paste jQuery from
 tutorials are not the kind of people who are likely to hunt down and
 implement a filter to disable noConflict mode. They want stuff to "just
 work". Changing noConflict so it's off by default will fix this and also
 allow more able developers to enable it via the filter.
