Comment (by adrelanos):

 I think users using `Bridge` lines and forgetting about `UseBridges 1` are
 a lot more important. Users who want to have `Bridge` lines in their torrc
 but not use them could still set explicitly set `UseBridges 0`. That does
 not speak against implicit `UseBridges 1`

 Also turning off all the bridge lines temporarily gets a lot simpler once
 #1922 was implemented.

 Turning off bridges - isn't this a minority use case of developers and
 alike? Either you need them or you don't?
