HYBRID has been the default PDFTOPS_RENDERER since the option group was added a year ago and should continue to be so. Although mupdf had been added as a dependency, it was not actually used because --with-pdftops=mupdf had not been passed to configure. It is only with the addition of the option that it becomes possible to use mupdf instead of ghostscript/poppler. Changing the default PDFTOPS_RENDERER from HYBRID to MUPDF would violate POLA.
