Well groups are also users at the end, but why not...

Well, this is a point of view. The basic interface allow managing commons
rights, and will probably be the only view allowed for users that have not
their profile set to "Advanced" (like what is done for the edit menu, which
is only shown to advanced users)
Right interface is complex, but access to it is also possible for simple
editors not only for admins. Those only need to manage read/write access to
their page, and those will not understand the ins and outs of the extended
rights. This is mainly why we see this as 2 different view of the same
stuff: a basic view, and an advance view.
You have a similar behavior in the right management interface of Windows
ACLs.
Note that in basic view, you have a summary icon (currently a lock, but this
should be improved) that shows if there is some advanced rights locally set.
The tooltips for this icon list the rights locally set and their allowance,
but does not allow changing them (in the sample, the allowance is not shown,
this is probably a mistake)
