I think it's probably more if you are not aware of tuning stereo width or stuff like that, it'll get you to a nice "default". But obviously if you're more knowledgable you might tune this yourself.
There are probably (or soon will be) different presets for mastering a rock track or an EDM track or a jazz track, with different targets for dynamics, loudness etc.
also messing about with stereo width is not (in my experience) a 'default' move in professional mastering. it would be done as a corrective, but only with the say-so of the artist.

Hmm.
Translation: "AI" can now make all recordings indistinguishable from each other?
'Standards' in art are dangerous.

For loudness there are certain "standards": https://support.spotify.com/us/artists/article/loudness-norm... - it just makes distribution of your music much easier.

A music genre is a "standard"
