How granular should the permission system get?

The three-layer model (WP caps → space roles → trust levels) is powerful. The risk is configurability becoming overwhelming.

Where is the line between flexible and confusing? I would rather have good defaults than a hundred toggles.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.
