I understand that and was looking at it only to try to understand how it works.

When using regular ssh access the the ssh publickey is in the cache if needed.
A user who had not connected previously is able to connect even if the backend 
is unreachable
When using the console, we have to rely on the password.
When something goes wrong (sshd down or network issue), there is a high 
probability that the user would connect to the console for the first time.
So if there is no guarantee the login could be successful offline we need to 
have a local  (shared) account to connect to the console.
A shared account is a nightmare to manage and a sore point for audits, we would 
like to remove it.
