yes, OTOH float -> float rematrix + "inverse" float->float should be
closer to the original than with the changed default
The difference between the defaults is in volume of the output

no its not good, though the alternative isnt really good either.
All choices have some kind of disadvantage. There also would be the
possibility of implementing 2 pass mode to maintain the volume as much
as possible without cliping (but that could not easily be default)
For the default, the question is what people prefer ...
