Usability is not the sole aspect in a decission. Other things like costs (ie. development, is it easy to maintain), "gain" for the users compared to the work needed, etc..
Users will not gain anything from the proposed change. The only benefit for them would be that there is 1 field less to enter if they want (already default value suitable for most users). On the other hand we would need to make changes that go beyond default vB, also making it more difficult in an upgrade.
I see more in removing the field and simply not allow adult links as homepage. This would be more consistent with our rules regarding posting etc.
