Users don't have anywhere to put scripts or custom binaries.  You may also 
get random breakage due to programs using small, temporary scripts without 
the user's knowledge.

As a user of my own systems, that's simply unacceptable.  I suppose it might 
be of some value if you are already mounting /tmp, /var/tmp and anywhere 
else a user can write to as noexec.
