Hello

I am adding it
, since:

J3.7.3 no longer saves empty rules (empty are the rules that are set to inherit) , also there were other ACL speed improvements in J3.7.0


But there is this question:

My client - is company boss. He is Administrator. He don't need access to settings, modules, plugins.
But he need access to users, categories and content.


why would it be too bad to make your client a super admin ?
the admin user does not need access to them , yes,
but it will be too harmful to make the admin user a super admin ?

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

This is one of examples.
Hierarchy can be more complex.
Boss (Super Admin)
|
Administrator with ability to change and assign authors
||
Manager with ability to change and assign authors
|||
Agent (Author)
