I liked the last in point in particular. It's one of the reasons I don't keep dotfiles around and even my vim configuration is minimal.

I'd rather get used to defaults in case I need to use another computer in a pinch than getting used to a system and having to google how to do every little thing when in another system. I picked up that habit, when I had to work on remote servers nearly every day.

That's probably a bit zealous of me, but I've gotten used to it.
