True, but the 'copy .lnk from network share to local system' needs you to setup the shortcut - and if you have *a lot* of them, could get messy. Whereas with the 100%-script option, you could write up a common function, include it, and pass in the specific details - giving you only one extra file rather than one extra for every shortcut.
Also, you might not want to have a shortcut on every user's desktop (of course, you've locked the share down anyways), but why clutter their desktop unnecessarily?
Personal preference really, like all, or at least many, IT problems there's no single way to do something
