The conditions dictate the settings for si/di. There is no one setting and leave it. Just have to adjust the settings to what you like best. Color pallets can also have an effect on what settings you use.

2d I like a clean screen for the most part that way so only fish will show up along with bush or trees. I normally run 11-15

With Imaging sensitivity, you want the bottom dark enough to see the lighter fish returns against the darker background.

This is not quite dark enough but you can see the bass on the lower left side:

This is better for fish, school of shad being split up by three large bass:

Left side a little too light and right side about right:
