RE: default optimizer_mode=ALL_ROWS in 10g windows

In 9.2 the default for OPTIMIZER_MODE was CHOOSE. CHOOSE meant use the
rule-based optimizer if none of the tables in the query have statistics.
In Oracle 10.1 the Rule-based optimizer is officially "desupported" (see
metalink note notice 189702.1). So CHOOSE is no longer a valid option.
Therefore the default has been changed. Why is the default ALL_ROWS
instead of FIRST_ROWS_1, for example? That I don't know.

Does anybody have an idea why oracle made default
optimizer_mode=ALL_ROWS in 10g windows. I didn't check other platforms.
