Comment (by agm65):

 Many FTP servers have listing limitations,ex. 2000 files (1998 files + "."
 + "..")
 If you turn off this optional by default your upload folder may become not
 completly visibile.
 And this can be a bigger nuisance IMHO
 Replying to [comment:2 paaljoachim]:
 > I heard back from multiple beginner WP beginner users (they install
 their own site) who find it a nuisance to later find out that they have
 multiple folders inside their uploads folder.

 > So on or off depends on various usage of this setting. But having a
 discussion around it would be good.
