Yeah, you do so - but as I have noticed on multiple occasions reading your own userpage, you freely use your admin powers to lock yours down whenever someone is defacing your user page.
Ordinary users don't have that right. Their options are to request getting it locked and wind up having to beg an admin to lock it, wait for them to edit, and then relock it whenever they make changes or else constantly revert the vandalism.
I've never locked my user page despite frequent vandalism.
There are so many editors monitoring recent changes that user page vandalism rarely lasts more than a few minutes. We have special tools that make user page vandalism very obvious, easy to spot, and easy to revert. So this really is a non-issue.
