I think it's far worse for a new player to have a huge zoom and see a lot of effects at once when he doesn't know what they are.
Also:I play quite close to the deafault zoom (i play zoom 3000) and sometimes forget the command and don't even recognize the difference. I'm ill at ease when playing with any zoom above ~3200. You can't expect anyone to feel the same way about zoom as you do, there will be new players who want to zoom 4000 after 5 minutes, other players might want to play without any zoom forever. Higher zoom is not a priori better.
