Maybe it's just me, but I have never used Points as unit in the 20+ years I have been using illustrator.
I use Inches. occationally i get documents in CM and now a days I often work in Pixels. But Never Points. (save for Font size)
It would be nice if we could change the default unit for the print tab.
while that Might be true, it misses the point. We're not simply asking HOW to make Illustrator better for ourselves we're asking that they FIX it for everyone for now and always on items that Don't and Never made sense.
Illustrator isn't InDesign or a word processor, as such, Hyphonate should have been defaulted off since the beginning. My guess is, it was default on 30 years ago to be like "look what we can do".
As for points, until grade schools default to teaching kids Points instead of cm/in, no one will use it. There is no need to be stubborn about it, just drop it. I gaurantee, anyone that uses points will understand. Like Latin, it's a dead language. No one will fight you to make it the default. (imagine that!)

There are a few relating to document profiles and default settings already if you wish to vote for those instead.
