Where I work we have a strict policy that we don't release binaries that are built on normal workstations, just those on regulated build systems where we can 100% reproduce previous builds. Having a default that would make users commit locally build artifacts would go against that. We manage these artifacts using different tooling that was designed for that purpose.
