It's not more convenient or cheaper if the person gets lost at CDG and misses a tight connection. CDG is the only airport where I've gotten turned around, and I've been through most of the major airports of the world.
All the policy says is "don't do it without permission" so if there's a reasonable case, or the person travelling is good with it, there's not an issue.
But I would certainly advise against someone who rarely travels to connect in CDG over AMS, for example.
