Yes, since the arguments against this configuration that have been 
presented so far can be summarized in "OMG Google!!!1!".

So far the current default looks like a reliable and secure one, and
as the package maintainer I do not believe that removing the feature
of a last resort fail-safe preconfigured DNS resolver would be 
"no default" would improve the quality of Debian.

If you feel the need to further pursue this then please explain in 
detail the threat model that you are trying to address and how the 
current default configuration would be worse than other default 
configurations.
