Is there anyway to change the default severity to error for every check, without needing to explicitly set it for every ruleset?

Did you try to configure warningsAsErrors = true in the detekt yaml config file?

Thanks, but for some reason, that does not work for me. Severity is still reporting as warning in the XML report. (Using version 1.19.0)

Ah looks like that setting is just for meta warnings about the config file, not for actual detekt warnings
