Comment (by DavidAnderson):

 Of course. The aim of a default setting is to be a better default than any
 other - not to be always correct; otherwise they'd be hard-coded and not
 settings at all. And changing a default to help many developers is not bad
 just because it fails to help all of them.

 You're both interpreting the significance of the change wrongly. The
 proposed change just means "if using localhost, then WP_DEBUG = true is a
 better default than WP_DEBUG = false". It's got no bearing on people NOT
 using localhost.
