From GRACoL I believe. Certainly looked legitimate — can’t remember exactly but think that it is something like GRACoL 2006 coated v2.

Which is great, but we’re talking about a default here and I think that aggressive GCR should be a choice — not a default.

Yes. It’s the ISO Coated v2 profile with a 300% ink limit.
ECI offset guidelines state:
The ECI offset profile “ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI)” is a good
choice in cases where the intended printing condition is not
yet known. The advantage of the version of the coated profile
with a maximum total ink coverage of 300% is it‘s higher flexibility
regarding the use for sheetfed and web offset printing. Prepress
data prepared with this profile can be converted to many other
printing conditions with good results, however, the best possible
results will be achieved with cmyk prepress data prepared with
the profile that matches thatprinting condition exactly.
