As you know, the key difference between Learning and Permissive is
that Learning Mode appends undefined requests to domain policy
automatically, whereas Permissive Mode does not. If Learning Mode is
removed, then the replacement workflow involves setting domains to
Permissive Mode and viewing the logs to manually append acceptable
requests to policy. This is a considerably more difficult and
time-consuming process than the use of Learning Mode.

I presume the reason to consider removal of Learning Mode is to reduce
complexity. But I feel this actually increases the difficulty much
more than it decreases the complexity.


Kind regards
