As discussed in meshtastic/firmware#5082.

This will default to false. Only needs to be enabled when NeighborInfo from remote nodes is wanted.

It really can't be something people can enable on long fast, for defcon 60% of the packet traffic when the event started was neighbor info packets and it was off by default then.

Perhaps not the longfast preset itself but the default public channel in general is worth safeguarding. We don't want to subject public meshes to this traffic.

OK, so the isDefaultChannel() check in the firmware, this checks for the default key and channel name derived from the modem preset (LongFast, MediumSlow, etc.). Will update the comment.
