Why is "cg_thirdPersonVertOffset" cheat protected?

[Marcos]

Im just looking to make my third person camera more like modern third person cameras, The should view works great with "cg_thirdPersonVertOffset -1" but its protected?
I really dont understand what kinda of advantage this could have so why is it locked?

Generally commands that adjust camera positioning/view are locked away since they're not supposed to be available to everyone and with the right adjustments, can be used to give the player an advantage over others.

However you are looking for a Battlefront 2 style camera, you can enable right/left hand shoulder camera in Set-Up>Camera Settings
