The lots and lots of additional UI options/dialog tabs confuse regular
users that have no idea of CTL.

However enabling it when the UI language / the set of installed UI
languages includes RTL/CTL languages should be fine. But there is no
mechanism yet to enable/disable Options based on what langauges are
installed, so the question is whether it is worth to add program logic
to do so.

I don't agree with the "performance" statement there is no performance
impact AFAIK. All RTL functionality is there even without the option
activated. You can open and edit RTL/CTL documents even without that
option turned on.
Only the UI controls to set the advanced formatting options are hidden.
