I think one room where apparating is possible makes the whole
apparating barriere redundant. Because almost every child in the ww
has gone to Hogwarts, every child that stayed beyond its OWLs will
know about that room. So an enemy only has to aparate into the room,
open the door and....

I also think no apparating is a way to keep track of the students.
Imagine a nightly stroll or more with your lover, you're both
seventeen, have your licence, apparate out of the dorm, have a bit of
fun in London and be back on time for breakfast with no one the wiser.
Hm, teachers won't like that I think.
