If this is the only scenario that could cause problem theoretically to someone
then I suggest we still would unify the sysprefs and fix this by making an
option in the branch level to allow checkouts of reserved items. In my opinion
SIP and SCO should be both treated the same or libraries will start abusing
these features like by using the SCO module in one branch because it can do the
job even though SIP would be better because you don't have to maintain a
different kinds of self checkout machine.
