Hi team! We've been following the conversation here and appreciate you taking the time to explain the need for this feature.
We understand you’re looking for a way to change the default setting for the ‘Show journal on cash basis reports’ checkbox in manual journals, so that it’s unticked, and that having this box ticked by default can create inaccurate cash basis reports, which is particularly challenging when you’re correcting entries or dealing with a high volume of journals.
We may look into this with a finer lens further down the line, but want to share that there's no immediate works planned to enable changing the default for whether a journal is Cash basis.
As many of you have noted, right now you'll need to manually untick the box for each journal entry.
If any change is planned for this we'll be sure to share with you all, here.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on bulk allocation of credit notes, everyone. We understand that manually applying credit notes one by one can be time-consuming, and we appreciate wanting a a faster, more streamlined solution.
Currently, while we know it won't be the flow that suits all, it's possible to apply credit notes to multiple invoices for a single contact by opening the credit note and selecting the invoices to apply it to.
Atm, we're in the process of releasing a new experience for Sales Credit Notes. This work will enable us to develop changes like you're asking here longer term. However, the initial release is focused on developing existing features into the new Credit Notes experience. Once this is fully rolled out the team will have more capacity to consider enhancements like bulk allocations, however we want to be upfront that this isn't planned for the short term.
We…

Very few journals should ever show on cash basis reports. The default setting should be OFF i.e. unticked.
The default setting makes cash reports nonsensical and useless. Users who are not accountants or experienced finance staff - which is a big chunk of Xero's user base - will likely never diagnose the problem and simply ignore cash reports altogether.
More experienced users have to remember to untick a box for every single journal entry & manually correct journals posted from third-party systems. If retrospectively diagnosing the issue, it's necessary to review every single historic journal to correct.
