I agree. It's a bedrock principle of MediaWiki and Wikimedia that local administrators are trusted users. "Superprotection" was hastily implemented on a spurious premise and it has no legitimate use-cases. It was never appropriate to deploy to Wikimedia wikis and it should be removed. And nobody should be in the business of trying to retroactively justify this misfeature's existence, in my opinion.
