I agree it makes it obvious what the right default behaviour should be: flag every FD as sensitive by default, and pass an argument to say "sensitive=False" when you want to disable Python's automatic protections.
"sensitive" is a bad name... because the data passed via an open descriptor that _should_ be passed may well be sensitive, so saying sensitive=False is false... it's just necessary to leave the descriptor open to make things work...
