This concept is related to PAM. You often have to do ops on infra and need some DMZ to do the ops. In regulated industry you have to record every operations done by the person and have to follow principle of least privilege. This what should happen in an ideal world.

This makes sense, "bastion" hosts and similar things is fairly common too. What's not common is calling those "airgapped", because they're clearly not.

		I agree. They’re network enclaves. Which isn’t the same thing as an air gapped network.

		Airgapped is a different concept altogether.
