WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why pressable_set_php_filesystem_permissions needs a policy

Setting filesystem permissions is an execution-level operation that modifies how files and directories are accessed. Misconfigured permissions could expose sensitive files, break the site, or open security vulnerabilities (e.g., making writable what should be read-only). It's not a simple data write but a system-level configuration change with significant security blast radius.
