For a shared machine, I'd prefer to have an encrypted home directory (assuming you have separate users).

yeah, this depends on the use case.

I'm speaking about a situation when the space is shared. Basically every co-worker can ssh into machine and then do `sudo su` into a shared user, under which some R&D script is running and being fixed/adapted once for a while.

For scientific projects it may also be convenient, having a jupyter notebook running under tmux of the same account. Then collaborative (but not concurrent) work is possible on the project.
