No, Apple Calendar does not have a global setting or preference to make every new event default to an all-day event automatically. New events will always default to a specific hour or start at the current time.

Thanks WheelieNick. That’s what I’ve suspected. I submitted a feature request to Apple for this and will continue my manual process of setting this up until this becomes a feature (if it ever does).
