I disagree with that part, from my own experience : I tried to use
recursive minibuffers, but emacs complained, so I customized the
variable. However I did not enable minibuffer-depth-indicate-mode until
much later when I finally found about it...

Thus I too think it should be on by default, but having it in the
docstring is better than nothing.
