I think this one situation with a lot of external user with own devices
with own rights and responsibility (!) to change configurations.

But what about probably 1000 or more users with central administrated
Windows PCs? Often you have even just only 10 PCs configured on this way.
There you have _one_ central - mostly Active Directory with GPOs -
configuration. There is often not enough manpower to administrate X
parallel existing configurations (AD, Addon configuration, .....) and a
user has no rights to change a configuration.

Regards

Stefan
