These values could then be overwritten in the gcode if needed

this is only done once when LinuxCNC starts so any program you
have run since LinuxCNC started can change these and you
will not know. That's why it's better in general to have these modal
settings in the gcode itself.

Sounds like you set the g64 in your gcode, so defaults wouldn't bother you.robertspark post=244011 userid=23480People need to learn a bit of gcode and read the manual (yes I know I sound like an arogant $%%^^) but.....
if you set a "reasonable" default.... it may not be reasonable to that application like plasma or mill or lathe or metric or imperial or whatever.
I tend to use a G61 finishing cut (with mill router and lathe....)
And G64 for roughing cuts....
Ang obviously G64 with plasma but a rather lax settings
Having the planner default to following the gcode path closely seems much friendlier then having it diverge unexpectedly.

Probably a new user who does not understand gcode would not be bothered by them until they started to understand that maybe there was a better way.
{maybe I'm just a sad git who reads the manual and loves re-reading the g/m/o codes sections.....}
