Why isn't --subsfmt=compact the default?

user-1584

Hello, on the topic of subtitles. It's only now that I have discovered why subtitles always seemed to be so long, missing carriage returns. Apparently there's a setting for that, --subsfmt compact.

Is there any reason why this is not the default setting?
