There is a reason the number one question for SELinux is how to turn
it off. It brakes a lot of things and its not easy for the user to fix

fixing it.

Back in the day people would chmod their files to 777 because they
didn't understand file permissions. They just needed education -- same
thing for SELinux.
Most distros now ship with pre-defined policies on applications, I've
yet to really see someone have a *need* to turn it off. They just
didn't know where/how to troubleshoot their problem.
