It probably depends on the number of people using huge files vs. those not.
Or the number of people who want this vs. those that don't. Actually, I
don't think it really matters because it's so easy to change it anyway. Once
it's created and changed a little, I often don't change it again.

Personally, my org-mode usage favors "bite-sized" files that get replaced
over time rather than keeping huge files. My files cover one month and
that's it. Then they are filed away. For me... :scope file isn't a big deal.
