In this case I quite disagree.

If previous releases of the code did not set the authentication key, then
any RADIUS server that did not check the Authenticator would work and
any RADIUS server that did would break.

If they had changed the default, then those RADIUS servers that used to
work will continue to not check the Authenticator and still work, and the
ones that did check will now work.

No chance of breaking anything by changing this, I would say!

That's a different, and debatable case, because there really is a
potetial breakage.
