Indeed this is like this by design. If your environment wants an specific qt5 behavior it should set the right environment variables. As far as I understand there is no way to have a default without forcing it on desktops which have this present like KDE or Gnome. I would rater think this is a wishlist bug for those other environments, but I'll leave this open to see if anyone else has other ideas.
