Just before boarding some plane is the "bad time and place" for some
work.

Bad timing for use of a computer. You know how it works, you know
what it can do. But you are the only one with a brain between the
ears. Start using it.
You know that Windows might download automagically updates and
that it could install them when you shutdown?

Maybe these normal users should be made a bit more aware of what they
do. Again, who is the one in charge because is equipped with a working
brain?

Things created by man do have drawbacks. It's something you can't
avoid.

I think that even more people really need some type of perpetual
motion engine...

You have the option. Disable it. At your own risk.
On the other hand, the script could halt for user input. Then we will
have people complaining that they must attend the boot process.
