As stated in this request’s status update, the team had to temporarily revoke the 'Search for missing links in this folder' feature to make a way for the missing 'Apply to All' option when relinking, starting with version 29.2.
These two can’t coexist at the moment, and the team intends to come up with a better solution to allow both.

The intended way of setting a default font is to edit document profiles. These files are located in folders like 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 2023\Support Files\Required\New Document Profiles\[language]\' on Windows and 'Macintosh HD > Applications ▸ Adobe Illustrator 2020 > Support Files > New Document Profiles > [language]' on Macs.
Make a copy of the one you want to use someplace else, open it in Illustrator, make your changes, replace the original and then use it when creating a new file.
There are many tutorials on the web about managing these, like this one: https://productivista.com/new-document-profiles-saves-your-default-settings/
However, this way indeed is not the most discoverable. Please continue to vote and leave comments if you want this to be improved.
An error occurred while saving the comment I have Middle East/English installed b/c occasionally I need to do a ME translation and it is pointless to have to uninstall/reinstall each time. I would like the ability to set the application default for the following so that when you set up a new document, it defaults to the things you wanted. You can currently do this with tools, but not with the actual menus.
Type Menu:
Font
Lanugage
DigitsParagraph Menu:
Alignment
Paragraph Direction
Composer type (e.g. Adobe Single Line composer)
Type directionYou can do this in InDesign but not in Illustrator. Not sure why, but it's time consuming to do this every time you want to start a new Illustrator document.
It's also interesting that Illustrator has different versions for different lanugages and doesn't recognize that there are probably many people who use multiple languages when designing for a global audience.
Thanks!

NOTE: if you put the opposite shear value of what you set your shear to, it WEIRDLY does NOT actually set it back to original. It's off ever so slightly. E.g. if you shear a rectangle -15 degrees then shear it 15 degrees, your lines won't be straight. It's maddening.
