As if it was acceptable to have a destructive, non-undoable default choice in an alert.

Which it *definitely* is. The user is not an idiot (well, should not be), and the reason of the alert is to allow him to rethink once more, *NOT* to hinder his workflow eg. by forcing him to switch from keyboard to mouse!

I vastly prefer the Macintosh style

That's the one where there are *no alerts at all*, like until very recently for the Restart menu item, right?
