The issue is that “soft wrap” is not a global boolean choice. For example I like comments to be soft wrapped in source code, where soft wrap is otherwise disabled. We also soft wrap list items in Markdown documents, etc., which is why these settings are in bundles, since they are sort of language specific.
That said, how to disable soft wrapped comments is one of the most frequently asked questions, so it’s likely a bad default that I’m considering changing.
