EJ has all but made my point for me. The question who should be able to use SMP/E and the question who should have write access to system libraries can be and need to be disentangled.
We sysprogs tend to think about this problem in these narrow terms, but it is a more general one. Consider two application development groups, one for ap A and another for ap B. The members of the ap A group should not have write access to the Ap B group's libraries and vice versa. The principle involved is the same.
