Replying to [comment:9 gk]:
>However, I am still not convinced that this is the whole picture. In
particular, I feel those changes *do not* explain how the registry-based
bypass is working, given that the pref is only checked at one place and
`areEnterpriseOnlyPoliciesAllowed()` results in `false` for the stable
series, yet the bug report was made against 8.0.x.
I also can't explain this, and agree. But the patch looks good to me.
