On behalf of every junior administrator, overworked IT admin, and security-concerned "cattle" wrangler, thank you.

Having to learn a thousand+ knobs & dials means most will never be touched. I for one welcome automated assistance in this area, even if the results are imperfect.

Knobs exist for a reason. If there was no reason for it it shouldn't exist. Turning knobs automatically is one of two things: It's either an awfully bad idea, or should be turned into an upstream patch. Speaking from practice, it's usually the former.
