The Big Hammer always seems a great idea for a temporary solution.
And I assume you know what the catch is with those.

Every single time I've nailed down a sysadmin annoyance using the Big
Hammer, it's come back to haunt me later -- and, moreover, it turned out
that a further ten minutes of digging would have found a better solution
that didn't cripple the system's administrative framework but would,
instead, have worked with the framework.

Setting /etc/resolv.conf immutable, the classic case that was the first
I saw you fall in love with, is a case in point. There are multiple
ways to ensure that a DHCP client respects and enforces your preference
of recursive nameserver, averting the need for breaking system
administration tools using the immutable bit.

It has been ever thus.
