Right now I'm leaning against setting up /etc/bash.bashrc by default,

Yes, but if the file is there but the user doesn't want it, then the
~/.bashrc in the Book at the moment, at least details a way for
them to make their choice, by removing the stanza sorcing the
"system wide" file.
As I understand it, if /etc/bashrc was set it up by default and it was
there, which it is in the Book, then the user has no choice but not to
have it run ?
My understanding may be wrong though.
Your understanding is wrong. The user does not have to use the
~/.bashrc we recommend or may modify it to not source /etc/bashrc.
