I agree with them. Paranoia maybe, but better safe than sorry.

Exactly why I suggested 'grant public' in a previous post. But your suggestion 
for wildcarding has merits too. Something like 'grant pub*'. The solution 
'unrestricted' mentioned by Rob for guest lan applied to a vswitch would throw 
open the trunk for all kind of mischief. Using the grant option could at least 
restrict it to one vlan being nuked. And yes, that could be done by using two 
vswitches, but that takes at least more OSA triplets or even more real OSA's 
when using LACP port aggregation.
