There are many installations that not use peer/user matching at all and require allowguest to be yes. Not all installations are PBXs. We can change, as you propose, the sip.conf sample but *not* the default behaviour in the source.

Here we need to explain that anything here is exposed to anyone if you have allowguest=yes in sip.conf.
