Mark - I am really surprised so see you are finding this feature and how ITSM works is not really a good answer for you.
This is the most required in any organization you are really serious about there data. Why an emplyee who works in Call Center should have access to a HR ticket.. Why R&D person should be able to access tickets of Support person in any Enterprise.. You are noticing the concept of Multi-tenancy is a feature in BMC Remedy IT Service Management suite (BMC Remedy ITSM suite) that enables you to control which records and configuration data are exposed to a user, based on the user’s permissions. User access is controlled through the Company field, which can represent a company, business unit, or other group. You can use both support company access and multi-tenancy to give support companies (vendor companies or operational companies) limited access to data in another company. Using restricted access for support companies,” describes how to configure BMC Remedy ITSM suite so that tickets (such as incident requests and change requests) can be assigned to support staff in a support company without giving members of the support company access to other tickets for the customer or contact company. Without this you are exposing everything to everyone unless your Company requirements do not have this. You are comparing 6.3 with 7.6.04 and that is a major release shift and comes with unique features that you will come to know in coming days. How ever I would leave you with this note that Multi tenancy in Remedy is driven by certain core field like 112, and 60900 that governs Row Level Security. You can work on them to stop this feature Hope this helps.
