I wonder if it should say that the default is likely to change too?

It is to be decided in the future and we have no plan to do so
before the feature loses "experimental" label, no?  Those who are

Here also maybe we should say that the default could change in case
advanced users look at test cases to get hints at what is cast in
stone?

The same answer applies.
