This is a huge difference because the default cursor over text is a beam cursor in a browser, not a default cursor. I find myself frequently using "cursor: default" in addition to "user-select: none" to avoid confusing the user. Other examples I've seen in the wild include having links that looks like buttons not feature the hand, though I personally don't like this usage in most cases.
