AttributeType has a bunch of other settings (ie isNillable and so on). 
When ever I have to figure out something like this I save my work for 
tothers...

Object attributes[] = DataUtilities.defaultValues( featureType );
attributes[0] = geometry?
featureType.create( attributes );

There is also a method for dealing with a single AttributeType

Object value = DataUtilities.defaultValue( attributeTypes[0] );

Your example looked fine (and similar to the code in DataUtilities), I 
think you now may be arguing with your DataStore or working with invalid 
data?
