"default y" is for things that are needed for compatibility (when an old feature is made unconditional), or for things that are basically part of the infrastructure of a platform. And it can possibly be used for questions that don't enable code on their own, but are used to enable or disable a whole slew of other questions. A new feature that people aren't using is never 'default y', unless it cures cancer or ends world hunger.
