The compiler team's explanation

A negative impl was made default impl.

Erroneous code example:

trait MyTrait {
    type Foo;
}

default impl !MyTrait for u32 {} // error!

Negative impls cannot be default impls. A default impl supplies default values for the items within to be used by other impls, whereas a negative impl declares that there are no other impls. Combining it does not make sense.
