The difference between these two operations are large: one is relatively superficial: for "registration" all resources remain associated with the invoking user, only the cgroup is reported to machined which then keeps track of the machine, too. OTOH "creation" a scope is allocated in system context, hence the invoked code will be owned by the system, and its resource usage charged against the system. Hence, use two distinct polkit actions for this, so that we can relax access to registration, but keep access to creation tough.
