Exactly, that's the level. But with power they shouldn't have creating a sense of entitlement or idea it makes them look 'clever' to suggest they spotted something that maybe isn't there and write it in notes rather than offering options quietly - some of these things can cause massive life-long implications by allowing paths by which said gossip (or excuses or worse) can be taken as rote and inserted without question or assessment onto someone's record, and could even start other processes.
As an observation not specific to BACME there is an issue that occurs often in unsupervised positions where people have a specific job but decide they are more interested in doing something else instead. It has caused me to miss out on all sorts of incredibly important things where for example x was supposed to just provide y practical support which would have taken an hr, but instead 'because their interest is z' they are dangling y support they are supposed to give as a carrot whilst weaponising imposing z that they are neither qualified for nor supposed to be doing.
I'm shocked that these documents do not all start off with huge underlined paragraphs at the top clearly demarcating the line they cannot cross and the purpose ie if it is about them understanding a condition in general and being aware of what they can do/change in how they do things etc. in order for it to be allowed.
