this is NOT expected.  it's a desktop OS release with network manager enabled by default, so interfaces should not be used by default.  also when an interface doesn't get a DHCP address it also should not be setting any default routes, but maybe that's an upstream issue.  

that FAQ page is blank.

Great, isn't it? A blank FAQ and an OS image that doesn't work as expected (an OS image that's based on longsleep's work with another rootfs and unknown settings and now modified/re-released again by 'Pine64' -- who should know who's responsible if things don't work as expected?).

But that's the expected result of 'featured' fragmentation.

You should be aware that I'm neither a friend of fragmentation of information 'sources' (pages with zero contents) nor 3rd party OS images. Unfortunately these and not the original one get featured by the Pine64 guys. And in the meantime they also start to modify others' OS images, re-release them and create further confusion.

It's really absolutely useless to continue with this here... but you can use the link above to get an idea about the real state of Linux support for Pine64. And maybe also here http://linux-sunxi.org/Pine64#Sunxi_support

And with every new released 3rd party OS image the situation will get more and more worse Smile
