When even an engine programmer doesn't simply take a look on a program's options
before starting time consuming tasks, it's only his own fault... The "Options"
tab is clearly visible in Arena's tournament dialogue.

Everybody should check any options anywhere before starting anything. :-)

And in almost every software, the default settings are most probably not to the
individual satisfaction: That's why they are adjustable.
