Preventing users from breaking their machines unless they really work to bypass the defaults is a good thing. It's the same path all major Linux distros have followed by doing things like disabling the root account at install. The entire ethos of distros like NixOS is to not be able change your own OS unless you actively go out of your way.

The important part is that you can change it.
