A number of derived specifications define a default reporting endpoint.
This is an endpoint named default, defined with Reporting-Endpoints, that is used by default for report types that don't have a mechanism for specifying a reporting endpoint - such as crash or intervention reports. It is also used as a fallback in some cases for report types that do have a mechanism for specifying an reporting endpoint, if they have not done so.
The suggestion is that it might be worth specifying the pattern here in this spec, so that other specifications have a clear pattern to derive from, in which they know whether they should make default work in this way or not.
This came up in MDN discussions, because the default isn't particularly discoverable mdn/browser-compat-data#29539 (comment)
