> Excel, VSCode, Outlook, etc the permission model is a modal, "Do you trust this?" binary choice to enable full permissions to everything.

Because years of experience has shown that even users who should know better (developers) get extreme permission fatigue. The demand end users make is "it should just know without me having to click 'approve' all the time." Well, that's tough. You're basically stuck between a rock (fine-grained permissions) and a hard place (don't make me deal with it).
