+These options will be used every time you clean or validate with any SimpleSchema instance, but can be overridden by options passed in to the constructor for a single instance.
+
+Important notes:
+
+- You must call `SimpleSchema.constructorOptionDefaults` before any of your schemas are created, so put it in an entry-point file and/or at the top of your code file.
+- In a large, complex project where SimpleSchema instances might be created by various JavaScript packages, there may be multiple `SimpleSchema` objects. In other words, the `import SimpleSchema` line in one package might be pulling in the `SimpleSchema` object from one package while that line in another package pulls in a completely different `SimpleSchema` object. It will be difficult to know that this is happening unless you notice that your defaults are not being used by some of your schemas. To solve this, you can call `SimpleSchema.constructorOptionDefaults` multiple times or adjust your package dependencies to ensure that only one version of `simpl-schema` is pulled into your project.
