I have understood that Acked-by should be only used by the corresponding
maintainers and the documentation seems to say the same:

https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html#when-to-use-acked-by-cc-and-co-developed-by

The reason I ask non-maintainers avoid using Acked-by is that it messes
our patchwork listings (it counts both Acked-by and Reviewed-by tags).
