I agree with most of what you have said (and definitely can be 
blamed guilty) but this situation was exactly what I had in mind 
for original rant. You don't feel that you are competent enough 
to judge that PR and everyone else (including those few who 
possibly can be proficient) does not feel authoritative enough 
make the decision. It is not your personal failure (and I 
apologize if my words sound like that) but general organizational 
problem.

I believe calling for explicit domains of responsibility ( as 
opposed to just giving push access :'( ) is one way to address 
that. Quite likely there are better approaches but those are for 
someone else to propose.
