Quite the contrary. I often have the need to change the starting color to real white or even transparent.

It's probably one of those cases of "it depends!"

In choropleth maps, it's important to distinguish between non and the lowest class. However, for heatmaps and similar viz, a smooth transition from white is often desired.

Conclusion: the starting color should be really easy to change.
