Able, but not allowed, without consent.

Admin pages are locked because they would be the target of too much vandalism. The concern for regular users isn't quite the same, and if one user did end up getting targeted, the Admins could change the status to locked.

The purpose of keeping them unlocked would be as for experienced users to help other users set up features. User:WeaponXsubzerO asked me if I could help him with the code for the Slide Show Gallery. If the default was locked, it would require an admin to give me permission to it, then take it away when the work was done.

For the most part it isn't abused, however if it became a problem, the admins could lock for all User pages. If you have an example where someone has vandalized your pages intentionally, then report it. Remember, it could be accidental. A user may have liked something in your code, copied it, then accidentally done something that changed it or deleted it.
