I was thinking of consumer as "noncorporate" educational,
multi-occupancy housing, village WLANs etc. In that circumstance there
might be a fair amount of machines, not all accessible to the WEP
admin.

I've 3 machines, plus two laptops that are not always on or indeed in
the house. Changing the WEP key on them all once per month would be a
relatively large pain, involving a lot of running up and down stairs.
TBF tho, I abandoned wireless for all but the lappys as it was
basically too much hassle to get it working reliably, and I was
rewiring the house anyway so I ran cat5e in. :-)
