I often install machines with root only as my users are all in my FreeIPA/LDAP server and I expect to be able to login as root on the console for maintenance purposes. This change makes it very hard to do necessary maintenance. I can understand blocking SSH login as root with password by default, but I do not understand what is the point of blocking console login as root. Please explain the logic of blocking console logins but allowing SSH logins, it is completely backwards.
