MSI installation doesn't work for quiet installation

While trying to install one of my msi file through quiet installation, (Through msiexec /qn /i command)I get the following error.

You do not have sufficient privileges to complete this installation for all users of the machine. Log on as administrator and then retry this installation.

But through normal /i it works. Why is this discrepancy?

MSI can't throw up a UAC confirmation when running silently. The launching process has to already be elevated.
