Exactly. As long as you stay safe in a 45 old design made for a single computer used by a few tens of users, it's much easier. Just, you're almost useless in an actual large network with thousands of users/devices or more. That's another reason why Linux clients went nowhere - from a management point of view, they're just an hassle. Sure, third party technologies exist to make them somewhat better (Puppet... why the need of it?), still they add-ons (which you may have to pay for anyway), lock you in anyway, and still are not integrated into the OS itself.
