This and other similar topics?

My point is it looks like everyone doesn’t understand _history_ in the meaning: when an admin changes defaults and let them change on user’s side too, it will happend only if an user hasn’t ever change that setting.

So in easy english _history_ in this context means _an admin shall not override user’s choises_ 😉
