Should we make `alway_yes: true` the default, i.e., conda will not prompt you with yes/no if you want to install a package, unless you explicitly configure always_yes to no? You would still be able to use `--dry-run` to see what would happen without doing it.\r\n\r\nThe option is very annoying to me personally. always_yes was one of the first things I implemented when I started working on conda and is always the first thing I configure on any new machine that I install conda on. But my experiences shouldn't necessarily be a guide toward understanding the experiences of the typical conda user. I very rarely see people, when I do see them use conda, choose the no option. I do perhaps often see people check what conda will do before choosing yes, although this may just be because the question itself suggests that they need to do this.
