What you are being asked to decideThe visible dispute was milestone acceptance versus a time-boxed sprint.
Cost of getting it wrongYou may change process without fixing who can accept work—so revisions and conflict continue.

Evelyn · Evidence & riskThe thread contains requests, but no shared acceptance rule or named approver.
