This does sound a bit over-the-top as far as permissions go.
As Robbie said, some people/groups don't like having all sorts of
conditions in their spec files.  Having a SIG being able to put in,
and change, %if statements in Rawhide spec files whenever they want is
not a good situation.  If they want to open pull requests, for those
changes, fine.  But giving them permissions to put them in with no
oversite, I don't like.
Do we have any idea on the timeframe of having per-branch ACLs in dist-git?
