I checked narrow-to-defun, and it is not disabled by default, only
narrow-to-region and narrow-to-page, which are both accessible in any
mode.
As org-narrow-to-* functions are only accessible from org-mode buffers
and not that easily called by accident (I haven't seen any report like
this in years), I suggest we stick to the current setup.

Yes, but newbies don't use speed commands without knowing what they
do, do they?
