Even with that, I'm of the opinion that there technically is no default, because D&D is a framework, a resource for the DM to use for their individual table. So the only defaults, is what ever the DM decides for it to be for that particular table.

100% agree. My daughter LOVES dice rolls. She always rolls well and gets high stats. She's like a halfling - always lucky.

My wife, however, loves point but. It's not as RNG based, and she's at least guaranteed some decent stats. When she rolls, I swear - 8s and 9s for at least 2 or 3 stats.
