I want to add to my previous append and that is to recommend that user ids not 
be shared.  In my personal opinion, that is probably why it is not a good idea 
to use the IBM-supplied userids.  Not that they are insecure in and of 
themselves, but that people using them probably also share them and sharing 
userids certainly makes accountability much harder to achieve.  So, in my 
opinion, in addition to using good passwords, things should also be set up so 
that for a given userid, only one person is using that userid.

Yes, I think that's obvious reason to not use default userids.
Deletion ot those users could be caused to avoid re-enabling them or make attacks harder (hacker has to guess both username and password). Re-enabling is psychological issue: it's easier to convince someone to enable OPERATOR than to lend it's own userid. Dedicated userid is "more personal". ;-)


BTW: I also like new method of STP configuration. Very clear!
