Except that it's not a matter of 'convenience', it's a matter of being able to do their jobs. Security is a hard job, in part because you have to come up with security practices that are actually workable, and keep work impediments to a minimum. It's really easy to just add more restrictions. It's hard to add security that doesn't impede the users. When I see 'defense in depth' being invoked to justify massive work impediments for minimal security improvements, I don't see effective security practices - I see a cargo cult.
