It may be useful to prompt users on installation if they want to turn on
features e.g. blog comments during installation. My concern is that many
newcomers to WordPress may install a site on production and not consider
the security and spam implications of leaving comments on. They may only
discover the issues later on.
My motivation for the above is that WordPress is used by many non-tech
savvy users. Thus any assistance to secure the default installation would
be helpful.
Alternatively, consider making blog comments disabled by default.
