The Greek finance minister recommends defaulting in (2). Also note one of his points is defaulting would poison the Eurozone. That's one more reason this isn't as simple as "default would be bad" for Greece. It's a lesser evil for Greece and it's bad for the Eurozone. It gives Greece leverage.

"Does this mean that Greece ought to grin and bear the massive and misanthropic idiocy of the bailout-austerity package imposed upon it by the troika (EU-ECB-IMF)? Of course not. We should certainly default."

Defaulting could lead to further negotiations if Greece stays in the Eurozone, like slashing a big part of a loan handed out when projections showed Greece would not be able to pay it.

Why do you loan to a country when projections show the country can't pay? Is it to keep the country economically enslaved for years?

That's probably why the second-to-top-level comment translated the following as FUD. The gains for Greece from defaulting would be better than accepting the austerity measures.

  >For Greece the gains from defaulting would be slight, and
   the costs potentially vast.

   Translation: FUD.
