Why should somebody suggest new defaults? The values could be
adjusted, if required and QjackCtl provided most jack parameters, if not
all in a single tab, before it was split into two tabs. Much
likely LTS release distros still provide the old version of QjackCtl,
let alone that jack's defaults provided by package maintainers could
vary, I've seen configurations with --clients=foo
--ports-per-application=bar.
