It's inappropriate inside a corporation for the same reason it's not
right for the open internet.

But hey, if you don't wanna get paid this time around because somebody
installed a patch that rebooted the payroll server and it didn't come back..
Well.. it's your paycheck, not mine.

I mean.. really.  if a company needs a "code green" tool to clean up after this
for their own internal stuff, the right answer isn't code green, the right
answer is outsourcing their IT to someplace that has a clue.
