You managed to completely ignore all the warnings associated with
doing this, and then conclude that it's a good idea to subject normal
users to possible data loss or corruption...

In the case of no device loss, but device delay, with 'degraded' set
in fstab you risk a non-deterministic degraded mount. And there is no
automatic balance (sync) after recovering from a degraded mount. And
as far as I know there's no automatic transition from degraded to
normal operation upon later discovery of a previously missing device.
It's just begging for data loss. That's why it's not the default.
That's why it's not recommended.
