I think you're misunderstanding the code in the template.  That code
checks the value which has been set using CGI parameter HITSPERPAGE - if
it's not 10, then the template code generates a suitable "hidden input"
such that HITSPERPAGE is preserved for the next action.

You need to modify your static initial search form to include a hidden
field HITSPERPAGE, and once this has been passed to Omega, it will
"stick" if you search again, page forward, etc.

But there simply isn't currently a way that you can specify a different
default page size just by modifying the OmegaScript template...
