Beside code distributions shipping with the IANA managed KSK (or its DS form) for the global public Internet's root zone, if any operator wants another trust anchor point, they have to take explicit action to configure it.  The question is - what is the expectation of the operator in doing this?

When the root zone was signed in 2010, the TLDs had to remind all those with trust anchors to remove them (before the TLD could change it's KSK).  I can no longer find reports of the efforts to undo TLD trust anchors (Sweden and maybe CzechRep?) that I thought were once floating around.  "Fears" surrounding this would lead one to favor the more open "any" policies, on the other hand, mass migration from TLDs to root for the top of the trust chain was probably a one-time event as a result of the on-set of DNSSEC in the root zone.

Yes. And add to that cases were TLDs rolled just before adding to the
root.
