In systems that already provide per-user effective policy views and provenance for defaults, does adding a compact authorship and approval trail for each override-related change (who set it, at which chain-of-command layer, and when) improve perceived fairness and dispute resolution outcomes more than it increases perceptions of surveillance or loss of personal control?

Answer
Probably yes, if the authorship/approval trail is compact, scoped to policy changes (not fine-grained activity), and reused in explanations; but it can flip to feeling like surveillance when granularity or retention is too high or when it is used punitively instead of for clarification.
