Related List : Cannot Read and Cannot Contribute

What scenarios makes sense to have the following related list enabled for knowledge base : "Cannot Read" and "Cannot Contribute" ? A video tutorials talks about user criteria where one group can be limited to "read" only without the ability to contribute, however, I am trying to understand what is the purpose of the other 2 lists.

The video I am refering to is : ServiceNow KB: Understanding User Criteria and ACLs in Knowledge v3 (KB0550924)

Thanks

User criteria are useful for grouping classes of people together by location, group, department, etc. You may want to INCLUDE everyone in North America in a knowledge base to be able to create content, but EXCLUDE another group (ex: all North American users in the legal department) from contributing.



You can include the North America group and Exclude (cannot contribute) the NA Lawyers.



I hope that makes sense.
