Wait a second, why wouldn't TearFree be enabled by default?
Are there people who wish to have screen tearing out of the box?

This answer has some good detail on the tradeoffs of TearFree with the Intel driver.

Screen tearing is usually due to rendering faster than the display can support. So you wouldn't want to have it on by default since it likely impairs frame rate if I had to guess.
