Do you require explicit configuration for new services or rely on fallback defaults?

I was reading about a team that went three weeks without noticing errors because their new setup automatically defaulted to zero logging in production. The code itself had zero bugs, but relying on a default fallback meant nobody actually chose that behavior it just happened quietly.

Since then, I ve started viewing unset options and fallback defaults as a bit of a risk rather than a helpful shortcut.

How does your team handle default configs to make sure critical settings aren't skipped by accident?
