This option has been present since version 1 of Mathematica but its default setting has always been Automatic. I believe that in the early days there was a heated debate at Wolfram whether the default should be changed to On, but it was disovered that the working of this option was very dependent on user architecture and in certain cases setting it to On could lead to unpredictable behaviour, sometimes dangerous the user, his computer and anyone who happened to be in the vicinity. So in order to avoid possible legal problems WRI decided keep Automatic as the default. Andrzej Kozlowski
