If there are incentives for users and miners to change it, they should use non-default value. In case, miners want to experiment with lower fee rate and see if this increases revenue they could try using it on odd dates (even dates remain default) for a month. We all could analyze how this worked for different mining pools and non-default value (lower or higher) could become normal in the future.

Without a way for lower-fee-rate transactions to get to those miners,
experiments like that are pointless.

If you want to propose things like this, propose a way to get non-standard txs
to miners, like a hashcash-based alternative broadcast scheme.
