It does seem pretty odd - why do I have to explicitly enable ssh during installation? In previous releases, sshd was always active. To anyone with more than one box, sshd is a must - to anyone with only one box, it doesn't do any harm.
On most users machines (I estimate 95%+), the firewall is enabled and the ssh port not open.
For them sshd running is useless and just costs startup time and resources.
Reasoning yes, but not very good, IMHO. I think it's quite interesting (read: silly) to do such "optimizations" on one end of the spectrum (single-user PC) when we do e.g. LVM and RAID improvements (something the single-user most probably has little or no need for) on the other end.
