There's a problem in your sentence: global means "for all modes",
whereas you only talk about C and Python.

My opinion is: default for python-mode should be off (I think we all agree
here) and default for cc-mode should be the same as the global default.

What the global default should be is another discussion.

No: even if it's not been set by the user.
