I like exporting everything to LaTeX without having to re-run all the code, which in many cases can add considerable time.Which you can still do, I guess by (setq org-babel-default-header-args (cons '(:eval .

IMO the old behavior of org-export-babel-evaluate made sense and was useful; the new behavior is surprising and I have a hard time seeing how it is useful. One can argue (as Chuck has) that the new behavior is fine sense we have another way of achieving the desired results; that may be, but I have yet to see an explanation of why the new behavior is desirable.
The change was in this commit commit ec615b192d703a0201ceefd46897e4636ff00a38 Author: Nicolas Goaziou <address@hidden> Date: Thu Apr 28 17:25:31 2016 +0200 and was in response to a bug noted in http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/106767IIRC, you need to read the thread - not just the first post - to get what gives.
It this change is not going to be reversed than the doc string for org-export-babel-evaluate needs to be updated, and something should go in the NEWS file warning people (like me) who have been relying on the old behavior.
Since the change was a bugfix, it seems unlikely that it will be reversed unless another bugfix is proposed.
I could change the docstring, but I wanted to let the discussion ripen a bit first to see if anyone stepped forward with a patch that would do just that. Or even suggest that the variable be deleted entirely.
For those who are just now tuning in, something like #+PROPERTY: :eval never-export should give the behavior most users of o-e-b-e nil would desire. Chuck
