Why would one need this? You can do all this without any app with what's provided within windows.
Sound more like a lazy way out to me but If it does what's it clams to do it should stop most ransomware along with malware that try's to make system changes. Neat idea for those that don't know or have the time to properly secure there systems.
That's not all it does. But that is kind of the backbone of what it does (it has ~4000 SRPs, which would be pretty time-consuming to implement manually, so I wouldn't call it "lazy"). Also it allows these polices to be applied in non-domain settings as well as "Basic" and "Home" versions of Windows. It does other things like block suspicious executables (.cpl, .scr, .pif) and double file extensions (like .pdf.exe).
Spend 5 minutes reading the manual before you shoot it down any further:
