Research direction
Add a note or ADR explaining why :shutdown is not set by default. Use the issue's stated risk that the shutdown-hook closure is retained until shutdown and can create uncollected garbage across many processes. The work is done when this rationale is recorded in the project documentation.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The reason for this is that adding a shutdown hook by default creates a potential memory leak problem: the closure will be retained until shutdown. In case of lots of processes, this will create lots of uncollected garbage.
