Hmm maybe. It's not like things won't work without it set though.

I never understood this. The default value is something that is entirely
software driven. It could change at any time. If DT implementers aren't
specifying it they're saying "I don't care what the value is, let the
driver decide if they care". They're not saying, "Oh, that default value
in the binding is good enough for me so I don't need to specify this".
