here is what I see:

commit 18b680cfd177e877991be2bd70ead628bbdc0aa0
Author: Sam Steingold <sds <at> gnu.org>
Date:   2021-12-28 17:27:41 -0500

    Fix bug#52467 by adding a new custom variable 'display-comint-buffer-action'
    
    * lisp/window.el (display-comint-buffer-action): New `defcustom`,
    defaults to 'display-buffer-same-window' for backward compatibility.
    * lisp/cmuscheme.el (run-scheme, switch-to-scheme): Pass
    'display-comint-buffer-action' to 'pop-to-buffer' instead
    of using 'pop-to-buffer-same-window'.
    * lisp/eshell/eshell.el (eshell): Likewise.
    * lisp/shell.el (shell): Likewise.
    * lisp/org/ol-eshell.el (org-eshell-open): Likewise.
    * lisp/progmodes/inf-lisp.el (inferior-lisp): Likewise.
    * lisp/progmodes/project.el (project-shell, project-eshell): Likewise.
    * lisp/textmodes/tex-mode.el (tex-display-shell, tex-compile-default)
    (tex-recenter-output-buffer): Pass 'display-comint-buffer-action'
    to 'pop-to-buffer'.

I am confused.

I am with you, but note that you risk getting your emails bouncing.

Yeah, looks like I do:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
 '(display-buffer-alist
   '(("shell\\*" nil (inhibit-same-window . t))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

When my change was discussed, I was told that adding a new custom
variable was okay, but making it have non-trivial default is not.

Maybe `display-comint-buffer-action' should default to
`display-buffer-in-previous-window'?
