Short description of error
groups in the node editor have a "default" setting.
Out of the group using the option "reset to default value" doesn't bring back the setting to the value decided by the user.

This is a problem because sometime a very specific value is crucial and the user should be able to go back to a "preset" value decided by the user.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
open the attached file and try to use "reset to default value".

Thank you

This is an issue with slightly confusing use of the word "default" as the property and Reset to Default Value are not referring to the same "default" value. I hope the explanation in the ticked I've merged this one into explains the well enough.

I can confirm this on 2.93.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2021-01-17 11:35, hash: rB4ef0654449e9. I think this is not a bug, but a limitation (albeit an annoying one).
