I am not a corporation yet *I* manage the machines I have at home, and if *I* give an account to my friend foo *I* don't want him to be able to install nothing without asking me first, not even by mistake. For better of worse even desktop Linux is a multi-user system and this default is just crap and totally unnecessary given the previous version allowed you to allow a user forever explicitly and without hassles. This way I have to *fsck* remember each time to change it, this is *wrong*, it doesn't respect the basic philosophy of least surprise. I would almost consider it a security vulnerability and ask for a CVE to be issued.
