If you take the document in the first link I posted and apply 'Filling in Forms' protection to it, the dependent content control still gets updated without any unprotection being required.

Now, where our opinions differ is "Where they don't work well is in documents that also contain formfields." Personally, I have never encountered a difficulty.
If you create a document with a mix of Content Controls and Formfields, what you'll find is that, having tabbed from a Formfield into a Content Control, you can't tab out of the Content Control to the next Formfield.
