My point was procedural, not technical.

This discussion identified a disagreement. When there is a
disagreement, it is customary to ask for explicit approval to
compromise solutions before implementing them, even if you are sure
such an approval will be given. If nothing else, this encourages
cooperation and the will to reach an agreement in the future.
Unilateral actions, OTOH, have the reverse effect.
