4.2.3 applying restrictive permissions to non *.log files?

[boris-stojnev]

Question
Should restrictive permissions (g-w,o-rwx) be applied to non "*.log" files, such as utmp, wtmp and btmp, and lastlog within rule 4.2.3?
Currently rule 4.2.3 is using pattern "*.log". Do you anticipate any issue with applying those permissions to them as well? Maybe worth mentioning, those files will not belong to the root group.

Environment:

• Ansible Version: 2.13.7
• Host Python Version: /
• Ansible Server Python Version: 3.8.10
