What about "access controls" for the AuthZ side, instead of Permissions?

Wondering HNs collective wisdom on this-- at work we've been using Access Controls on our homepage for awhile- https://www.conductorone.com/ - to the people outside the IAM-geek space does this make more sense?

I like the idea of exposing Roles for selection, and having those roles generally apply to permissions or workflows internally. This tends to work pretty well for many, or even most applications. I can't stand fine-grained access controls in general.
