Most traditions that aren't westernised pseudo-Buddhism have other modalities of practice for answering this question:
"I have no stable frame of identification, now what?"
A lot of practitioners over here get stuck there, though.
And that's on the healthier side!

The whole point is to move away from "I am a person X and my story is Y and that is the fullest extension of my being."
You can move away disintegratively or reintegratively, but the whole point is liberation from fixed frame-ness.

Pretty sure most people I've ever met were either in (the illusion of) stable identification, or disillusioned and frightened by it!

More talking about how engaging in the delusion that you have a singular, perceptually consistent, mind-localized identity is super common.
What is or isn't default is a secondary concern for me.
What is most often done by the most people vs. what I think is desirable, OTOH...
