Yeah, anyone who has had to manage developers in a big company will be able to tell you that it is a constant struggle between giving them freedom to work independently and get things done vs. limiting their access to prevent potential bad stuff from happening. In practice, the more bad stuff happens (and the more consultants you allow in), the more hurdles are introduced. Eventually even trivial tasks become a corporate nightmare of approvals. You can't have the conveniences of both work philosophies at the same time. Even the smartest AI agents won't change that fact. It simply limits their work speed to the speed of the approval process.
