Canon cameras (and many other manufacturers) use 2:1 chroma subsampling when converting in-camera from RAW to JPEG, so the default setting should not be higher than 4:2:2 since a higher setting would merely increase file size with no gain of quality.

Additionally, 4:2:2 is widely considered as a medium quality JPEG so that could be a good default.
