C++ frameworks pre-standard used to have better defaults, unfortunately there a majority of people voting that would rather have the wrong defaults, and so here we are, and given how ISO works it won't change.

Those that care know where the knobs are to re-enable those proper defaults, given that for some domains, C++ is going to stay around for a while, regardless of the alternatives.
