Correct.

I agree.

Also correct.

Yes, we do.
Opt-out is pre-existing, and removing it would be an [unacceptable] regression.
Opt-in is an enhancement. Of course, it would be nice to always default it to 
on,
but as it was disscussed with @mclow.lists, this is simply not going to happen.
This is the best we'll get.

```
#ifdef _LIBCPP_NODISCARD
    // the user has given us their preferred spelling; use it unconditionally
```
So you propose to shift the burden of picking which define to use to each and 
every
libc++ user (who wants to enable nodiscard attribute for pre-C++17/whatever) 
out there?
I really don't see how that would be better.
