MR approvals on Controlled Documents not enforced
Within the Handbook we have almost fifty "controlled documents", for those documents it says:
Inline with GitLab's regulatory obligations, changes to controlled documents must be approved or merged by a code owner. All contributions are welcome and encouraged.
However we don't enforce these MR approvals so that changes to those documents might be merged by any the many Maintainers this project has. A recent example where this almost happened is !121333 (merged) for more context see this internal Slack thread.
