There are some decisions that are smart.  This decision was not one of
those.

I was setting up multiple machines and the default is now to use half a
disk, which means I now need to manually edit every single partition
configuration on each of those machines instead of using the default
full disk like every other Linux operating system in the world does when
it says "USE FULL DISK".

I've been Ubuntu's biggest fan since the early days, but ill-conceived
decisions like this are the reason trust gets eroded and users move on
to other distributions, especially since this wasn't even documented
anywhere.  This essentially wasted 5 hours of my time to fix your
decision.
