Because you currently ship systems with firewall that is unable to filter outbound traffic per application. DnsCache bypasses filtering by effectively providing tunnel between localhost and external network interface. Maybe you know of a way to selectively limit access to DnsCache per application? effectively whitelist a couple and block the rest?

Ordinary person argument is flawed. So called ordinary person doesnt even know what a network card is.
