Ah, true.

Yes, but it's a default, so by definition, it won't suit everyone. Yet,
it has to be there. And every board is free to override that default in
its own DT anyway, so it's not really a big issue. But like you pointed
at, we have to be consistent.

I'll disable the pull-ups in the next iteration for every node.
