Hi Kunal,
thanks for bringing this up on the list. I've missed the ticket before. I volunteer to get Wikidata devs solve this issue.
Cheers

Hi,
A while back I filed a task[1] to clean up the mediawiki/extensions/Wikibase ACL. It hasn't seen any input from the Wikidata team so I'm raising it here.
Some of the permissions I think are uncontroversial to remove (no one should be force pushing), but currently there's a disconnect in which some humans have the ability to force merge, and others don't.
I'd like for it to either be: no humans can force merge (only bots can merge), or all humans can force merge (for emergencies, etc.)
