We've used soft immutability before for data associated with specific research projects. Soft so that we can remove data as "root" - sometimes research data is a partner's and there are cases when they require us to be able to remove their data.

Hello, I'm trying to understand how and why people have been using the immutability (WORM) functions that became available in scale 4.2. I don't need a company name, just an idea of why and how you use it.
