Not really, just that when I first got involved in patching there were some patches that were enabled by default, so I continued with that.
I've tried to leave patches that are most popular and which don't cause problems for anyone enabled by default, but as the firmware has changed some patches that used to work for everyone now cause problems for some (e.g. `Freedom to advanced fonts control` for Japanese books), and others are not as useful as they once were because Kobo have improved the firmware (e.g. `Custom font sizes` was very much needed when there were big gaps in the middle of the size range, but less so now that Kobo have smoothed out and extended the font size options.)
I decided to leave the line spacing patches disabled by default from now on because the KePub reader has problems with narrow line spacings, and it seems more people are reading KePubs now.
