Docs of backends.smtp.EmailBackend: use_tls default should be False, not None

Description

​https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/topics/email/#smtp-backend

I don't understand why the defaults of the constructor are different from the defaults of the settings:

use_tls=None
use_ssl=None

The defaults of the settings are "False". Which is more intuitive since it is a boolean (AFAIK).
