ok, requires a different way of thinking then.
But what about my argument on checking BE users in FE Logins too?
Isn't this just what you need?

Maybe you could construct a more catchy example because in 3 years of typo3
development I never came to the point you seem to need.

If you need every FE user to edit content, this sounds very much like a
community portal to me.
If you need to be able to log BE users in on the website too, this makes
sense because it is quite annoying to add all BE users to the FE users table
as well - though this never have been more than maybe 20 - 30 users.
