I disagree. defconfigs are great because they're easy to add to kisskb
or other auto builders, making automated build testing easier.

In fact because the defconfigs are pretty much the only thing that
people build test, if you stray too far from them you are almost
guaranteed to find breakage. For example the UP build was broken for
months because we didn't have a defconfig for it.
