Prevent users to change profil photo

Hi Dean,
Good question.
One reason as I see is, to maintain a standard across the organization. The photo you're uploading to your social media profile page may not be the most appropriate for your work environment. So, to maintain a standard across the organization, the IT and HR departments can work collaboratively and upload a standardized photo, and then they can disable the ability change the photo by the user to avoid any conflicts.
Although it is true that software vendors create services with many features, specially cloud solutions such as Office 365, they do not make customized versions for individual customer. You may find features you like and features you don't like. But, that doesn't mean you have to use the product with all the features that comes right out of the box. Instead, creators have made it possible for the customer to disable features that they do not want. Also, if there's some feature missing, there's a way of providing your feedback and if there's a high demand, they will implement it. :)
Hope this helps you in some way. :)
Thank you,
