Don't get me wrong - I'm not criticising your analysis, just making the point
that py2exe has more utility to me than just preventing alterations to *.py files.

As it happens, some of the utilities have involved GUIs (in my previous job),
but none made any connections to local databases.  Where local databases are
required, I tend to provide the services by other means, and where public
databases are required, pre-installed client services and/or logins to
pre-existing accounts haven't been an issue.
