Yes. Without system integrity a user's files are worthless. Protecting
the system protects *all* users. That is the responsibility of the
administrator.

An individual user who destroys part of his own precious space takes the
responsibility on his own shoulders. The effect is not to affect other
users and the system survives. All is well with the world.
