I find this amusing from an agency that has for years been a leading force in defining what mandatory access control, role based access control, and separation of duties should look like.
This was only possible because they found their own recommendations too inconvenient, and therefore, someone at some point has waived them or abolished them at a very high level, probably for the convenience of being able to use Windows+Office everywhere. Honestly, the fact that they don't have the discipline to stick to their guns on that means they had it coming.
