Research direction
Start by locating the implementation and configuration for post_auto_excerpt, then inspect how excerpts and the main page's default five posts are rendered. Define the full-post behavior, including how it interacts with excerpts, and verify the result on a blog main page.

Description
Describe the feature
post_auto_excerpt defaults to 1 and shows the first paragraph of each post. 0 doesn't show anything, just a link.
Many blogs show the full post on the main page, which isn't unreasonable for the default 5 posts.
I set this to 100, so it basically does that, but this also seems like a typical use case, so it might help to have something easy to handle this. Everything I found related to excerpts assumed that I either wanted a short excerpt or no excerpt at all. Maybe useful for subpages, but seems odd for the main page.
I have a work around for now as mentioned, but looking at Google Analytics, it was obvious this was confusing the vast majority of people.
Proposed solution
I think there are probably a few ways to handle this, but not knowing the internals it is hard to say. Even an option like :fullposts: might make sense (though you'd need to decide what to do when someone does that and :excerpts:)
