It's just a bad idea of a security model that implements ad-hoc and mostly path based restrictions instead of an actually verified security model. Using that by default makes it much harder to actually use a real MAC based security model, which not only is required for various security sensitive deployments but also a good idea in general. Last but not least apparmor had various issues where certain distros shipped non-upstream features that later turned out to be incompatible with what went upstream.
