IT guy here. If we give one user special rights, that login will get passed around like a blunt at a festival to "save time".
Users are dumb and lazy, and that includes devs.

It's not special rights, it's project materials approved by leadership, and noted on a published and approved feature roadmap

Edit assuming requisitioning a scaled db replica is "special" is kinda aligned with the meme lol
