It means if you break into one daemon, you can corrupt any other files owned
by that user. If another daemon reads those files, you could potentially get
control of it.
But a lot of these daemons that suddently have their own users don't read
any files owned by themselves, so there's no reason they shouldn't just run
as daemon.
