> Telemetry is disabled in development builds by default

So it's not ideal from a privacy perspective to have to worry about usage telemetry in a calculator. But at least there is the silver lining of having telemetry disabled by default _somewhere_, even if it is only for dev builds.

To be fair, it's a nightmare looking at reports that are all clogged up with crashes and whatever from your developers making messes at their desks running non-release code.

Obviously one option is just a dev build flag in your telemetry payload, but I can see the logic in just turning it off altogether.
