(File under "default changes". For all I know this is already on the list of things to change, but if so I couldn't find it under either "numpoints" or "scatterpoints".)
This is far from scientific, but for what it's worth the question has 107 upvotes, my answer has 117 upvotes, and neither has a single downvote.
My experience is that those who don't like the multiple-marker convention really don't like it, and those who do don't seem particularly worked up about it.
I think an rcParam of legend.numpoints = 1 is a much better default than the current default of 2. If the default style does go with this, legend.scatterpoints should be changed to 1 at the same time, as well.

If one of you will generate a suitable PR for this, it will be merged. I will be very surprised if there is any opposition.
