you can assume most people use the defaults

why would most people bother to disable the history when most don't even use ad blockers?

I would imagine most people who aren't using chrome are doing so for privacy reasons.

Unless one shares a computer user with somebody, the privacy concerns of local history are nothing compared to connected features. There are many reasons people might use a browser other than chrome. Everybody disabling history is a strange assumption.
