Can I change the default material library?

A few weeks ago, Onshape started defaulting to a Material Library other than the built in Onshape Material Library for all my documents. I'm curious if there's a way to change back to the Onshape Material Library as my default library anywhere-- I've been looking in the account section and can't seem to find an option other than deleting the other libraries, which isn't really desirable as I still use them for specific projects. I'm also curious why it's defaulting this way for me-- I didn't change anything intentionally, and I can't recall anything in the updates about this behavior.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

    I'm not sure, it used to default to the Onshape default. Although at the time I was wishing it wouldn't.
    but this may have been added in a recent update.

    Honestly I've abandoned the builtin materials a while ago in favor of a featurescript that also adds weight to the part properties that I can just window select. So I'm not sure how long this has been this way :/
