I can see how this special paste mode could be very useful, but I don't think it should be the default.
It's what I want 90% of the time. The reason for making it default is that you can easily work around it by first inserting empty lines -- it's not likewise possible to "obtain" the column-paste by workarounds.
I did at one time consider adding a qualifier to make a "regular paste", but cmd-v is already too overloaded with the clipboard history.
But do you not see how it's confusing that paste works differently depending on how the selection was made before the copy?
That's a whole two steps away.
