I think you are misunderstanding the term "default".  What the config 
file says is the default for yum-autoupdate is to _not_ run.  In this 
case, the application default is being overridden in the 
/etc/sysconfig/yum-autoupdate config file to true.

If you were to take out ENABLED="true" from the file it would revert to 
the default value "false"

I don't see any bug here.  You may disagree with the values shipped in 
the file but I for one do not.
