Question about redundant setting of config values

[rikonor]

Hi,

Was just curious why these values are explicitly set, even though they're just being set to the default values?

gaia/cmd/gaiad/main.go

Lines 38 to 40 in 9c82ff2

	config.SetBech32PrefixForAccount(sdk.Bech32PrefixAccAddr, sdk.Bech32PrefixAccPub)
	config.SetBech32PrefixForValidator(sdk.Bech32PrefixValAddr, sdk.Bech32PrefixValPub)
	config.SetBech32PrefixForConsensusNode(sdk.Bech32PrefixConsAddr, sdk.Bech32PrefixConsPub)

see config.go#L23 for the current defaults.

An application should set its own Bech32 prefixes through config.Set*. The reason why the config has those defaults already is so you can avoid having to do this (even though that's unadvisable).

I see - so this is just setting a good example given that most applications will be setting their own prefixes? Thanks for the quick reply.
