Consider removing "*.thing text" from lots of .gitattributes files? #190

Bottom line: Why is it there? Isn't *.thing text the normal default? 🤔

It would appear from my limited understanding that leaving it unset for these *.json and other text-like files is best so that it respects the user's preference of core.autocrlf, right? Sorta like how most .gitignore templates do not include .DS_Store in them and expect a global ~/.gitignore to take care of that.

examples of this where I think it should be reconsidered:
