electric-indent-mode has been enabled by default since Emacs 24. If you
run `C-h v electric-indent-mode` under emacs -Q, you should see that its
value is t.

Not that I'm aware of. However, Org was changed to respect the
electric-indent-mode value: d3e6b5800 (Make RET and C-j obey
`electric-indent-mode', 2020-05-05)

Here's what ORG-NEWS says under the 9.4 release:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
*** =RET= and =C-j= now obey ~electric-indent-mode~
Since Emacs 24.4, ~electric-indent-mode~ is enabled by default. In
most major modes, this causes =RET= to reindent the current line and
indent the new line, and =C-j= to insert a newline without indenting.
Org mode now obeys this minor mode: when ~electric-indent-mode~ is
enabled, and point is neither in a table nor on a timestamp or a link:
- =RET= (bound to ~org-return~) reindents the current line and indents
the new line;
- =C-j= (bound to the new command ~org-return-and-maybe-indent~)
merely inserts a newline.
To get the previous behaviour back, disable ~electric-indent-mode~
explicitly:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (electric-indent-local-mode -1)))
#+end_src
Alternatively, if you wish to keep =RET= as the "smart-return" key,
but dislike Org's default indentation of sections, you may prefer to
customize ~org-adapt-indentation~ to either =nil= or ='headline-data=.
