According to the man page the master flag should be the default, yet, the
current code assumes otherwise.

Agree that the documentation and code don't match.
But your change could break users with existing scripts by changing behavior.

It would be safer to change the man page not the code.

Can we maybe set master and self by default. It doesn't make
sense by default to not include the bridge, it will not cause
regression in this case.
