Came here to find the thread discussing this. You stated what I'd think is the conventional wisdom and I expected this to be the top thread.
However, this thinking comes at the cost of UX (or Developer eXperience). Much more mundane instance of the same thinking is hiding elements of the UI you are not allowed to use. This often gets me thinking - is there a way to do this that I'm not allowed to see, or is it just that I can't find the function in the UI?
A solution for the DX issue is logging the real error somewhere only accessible for an admin. Has this been implemeted anywhere in the wild? For UIs, just be honest and show the menu items disabled.
