Lynx, my counter to this is that if we're talking about bikes for folks that aren't certain what they don't know then too-slack will always be better than too steep. The default should be slow and stable. Whether that's a static 66°, 64°, 67.5°, sure open to debate.
I think instead of the default being an unsagged 68° we could at least agree on 66° and give riders the ability to angleset 2° in either direction?
