What a silly assertion.  In a perfect world, this makes good sense, but the
reality is that the work force that we serve is more interested in
scientific/academic/business endeavors than in being perfectly trained on
how to use their desktop PC, and then summarily fired when they make a
mistake.  If a level of protection can be provided to make their experience
safer, why shouldn't it be.

(comments about the incompetence of our IT staff summarily ignored...  sorry
you feel the need to insult people you don't even know or deal with)

That is true enough, but if the virus can be stopped some of the time before
it even reaches the end user, why not?
