Comment (by chesio):

 Environment type should be constant, it simply feels bad to think about it
 as a filterable value that can potentially change multiple times during
 single request.

 > Setting the environment default to "development" means that whenever a
 new development environment is created, the code runs in its safest mode
 from the start, even without explicitly defining WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE
 constant.

 I would argue that **production is the safest mode**. I would prefer any
 of my development websites to accidentally run in production mode than any
 of my production websites to accidentally run in development mode :-) In
 production HTTPS is forced, regular code integrity checks are run, assets
 are optimized etc...
