In finance at least, there are often regulators that get in the way. For example, in my current company, we’d love to support our anemic Ops team, however a developer having any kind of influence on the deployment process is strictly forbidden by our regulator.

I'm not entirly sure this is a regulatory requirement so much so, it's the solution to the requirement.

I'd need to look at the regs directly, but I believe just having different roles would be enough, i.e. not being logged in as a production admin all day long, and doing devops and CI/CD, would probably allow a dev to support production under break glass circumstances.
