Comment:

 I agree it makes sense to defer to the least permissive option if
 conflicting values are specified. @flixos90 do you have
 thoughts/objections around this?

 I don't think it's a blocker for release so putting this on to the 5.7.1
 milestone for now.

 As for displaying default values such as `index`, I lean toward keeping
 them as it indicates the robots tag is been included as expected and
 accounts for search engines/archivists that have different defaults than
 Google.
