> Those are opt-out. The entire discussion is about opt-in.

Depends on your perspective, to me you have them flipped, and enabling them is "opt-in", i.e: "now I would like to see the hidden files please".

But I don't think I misunderstood you. You're telling me I should prefer hidden files to be the default, and I disagree and give my arguments. It's not more complicated than that.

To me rg only follows the same principle as the rest of my tools, fd requires `-H/--hidden`, ls `-a` or `-A` and so on. It is a big reason to why I prefer rg and fd over grep and find. Which brings us back to your first comment:

>> You started using it because it had that capability I imagine, not because it is the default.
