Sorry...allow me to be more clear:

It would prevent attempts to access the system, at the console, by
unauthorized persons who might otherwise have physical access to the box,
but were not intended, by the system administrator, to actually have
access to login to the system.

I'm not saying I agree with it...just that I understand the thinking
behind the question.
