Be careful of the examples you use. They stick
This is also an opportunity to think about the value of a piece of configuration. If an example configuration value works for 40% of users <i>without modification,</i> should that value even exist? Think Bash's `HISTCONTROL=erasedups`, which shouldn't be necessary to set in the 21st century. Or should it be auto-generated, like Docker's container names?<p>In the very best case, the defaults are so good that an empty configuration does what most people want. Think ripgrep, …, welp, I can't really think of many good examples. Browsers need extensions, Bash needs a decent prompt, even many pro cameras need to be configured to save raw images by default.
