Because root doesn't trust users who in turn may not trust apps they run
or wish to control things. I don't see a problem with that viewpoint in
terms of forbidding things providing the user (or process tree) does not
get to undo rules merely add more restrictions.

Assuming you have any value in the first place, which is another topic, I
can see value for this in all the security models.
