The law of the excluded middle does not create semantic problems for the phrase "being opted-in by default".

Human language does not work like that.

There is no excluded middle.

You have to turn it on = Opt-In

You have to turn it off = Opt-Out

Just because the option was added later on doesn’t change that.

Or tell me what’s the difference for me between Opted-In by default and Opt-Out
