Some points: * System installations (as you mentioned) * Security (you can set up staging/live between authoring server in internal network and the public server) * Handling of modifications (if you change an approved article it should still be shown in the original, approved format on the site) That said, the staging/live system requires some work to set up, and is not yet bulletproof on not letting unapproved content out.
