You said:

  "A single workstation has a single user.  That is simple, sensible,
   rational, and logical."

Since when does this "single workstation" belong to you?  Maybe it's
in the genetics lab where it is used by a number of scientists; or it's
in the product design lab where it is shared my multiple engineers; or
it's in an architecture firm.  Contrary to what passes for experience in
Fabtard Land (AKA Mom's basement), there are actually people out there
using Linux for more than generating mailing lists with Libre Office or
coding low-level intimacy with the pixels in their porn collection.

More likely you can't read the manpage for useradd.
