No, there are legitimate reasons to install a certificate to intercept traffic as an owner of a device. But the same tools can be abused by malware and by malicious actors to intercept traffic. Its the same in a strictly technical sense but not the same in the intent sense. The intent is to prevent malicious abuse of the feature, not justified non-malicious use. It helps make it harder to intercept application traffic but this is not the intent of the restriction, merely an unintended consequence.
