I think that would be good. And I would even argue we remove support for turning it off to force people to no longer lean on dict ordering as a crutch (in 3.3 obviously).
On-by-default should be enough to cover that. Just as we allow people to force the random seed to reproduce particular sequences, there's value in being able to increase determinism in cases where the collision attack isn't a concern.
Cheers, Nick.
