This is a different case, if I don’t have permission to talk to the graphics card, sound card, even ram, I’m a restricted engineer.

You’re right, anything that’s not obstructive is never worried about.

To me that says you’re doing a good job giving permissions, it’s also your job to manage those permissions, not the developers..

> It's just not their wheelhouse.

Your absolute bang on. And I can say from experience, it’s good you guys are there.

Right and that's the thing, you don't need local admin for that. It can be done granularly or set up a dev env vm etc. It's a pain for everyone to be sure and some routes are easier than others.
