I would recommend "defaultcapability remove misc.last" instead. It
prevents users from using misc.last by default.

That your command disables "last" command in all plugins, including
Misc, Utilities and Seen.

By the way, there is another issue like this, but it doesn't probably
affect Ubottu clones, because they don't usually have Math loaded as
far as I can see.
