Well this is quite different claim to "Each 'standard' user does not
have write / installation permissions."

I can believe that it can happens, and it is also possible that
there is miktex bug somewhere. But it is obviously not the intended
and wanted behaviour if users can't use the user tools and so
instead of propagating this as normal it would be better to
investigate about the source of the problem.
