I had a discussion a while back about the way the use of dbca rather changes the meaning of 'default '. I *think* that this was in relation to wether the default for 9i was to create a locally managed system tablespace or a dictionary mangled one. Dbca has had a habit of setting parameters/options that arguably should be set but in a rather silent manner.
