+ 1!

If we don't make LRA the default, it will be very easy for new ports
to default to reload, since they'll have to actively force usage of
LRA and I can see that point being missed even if we have it documented.
We don't want new ports to find out they need to enable LRA during
their patch submission, since that entails a huge amount of retesting.
It should be LRA from day 1 for them.
