So can't you harden this with a kickstart file line like you do in
your other hardening steps in your shop? I think to point Bill is
trying to make is that there are of a number of other settings that
need to be hardened and that this choice is just one of many choices
associated with security associated with a console user.  Console user
security is already a leaky ship and PK is just one more hole.
