I disagree. I think the point is reasonable. I personally find it useful to refer to my past searches/activity, especially in a professional context, and it would be unintuitive to me if such a feature was turned off by default.

People are just asking to have it off if they currently have the related setting off.
They answer it fairly clearly

It is off if the related setting is currently off if you're a non paid user. However if you're a paid user it is currently on.

That just describes WHAT the behavior is more precisely.

That’s not an answer as to WHY the behavior is that way.

What about... <<asking the user>>?

Shocking, right?
