Deselect option on "Choice" field types
Sugo Design
I think multiple Choice Fields should not be selected by default when editing the posts. Or, at least, they should be deselected if they are Required, so they can throw an alert if not selected.
For instance, a "Button Group" has already one option selected by default when editing the Post.
If a user is distracted, the wrong option can be submited. More so because there is no warning of "Required field empty", although Required in Validation is active.

We've run into issues with this as well. Ideally, the behavior of the Select field is to remain empty until a value is chosen by the user. The value wouldn't get a default value unless there was something designated in the Default value field of an ACF field. Alternately, maybe a filter could be created so this is the default behavior for Select field if you didn't want this to be what all customer experience. However, this isn't an uncommon convention for forms to keep certain select fields blank until the user selects a value. It ensures the user is purposefully selecting the values before form submission. Having the first value in the Select options pre-selected also affects how you can use required fields. If it's required and the value is pre-selected, there's a change the user completing the form may miss changing the value in that field.
