Opening this after discussion with @Ottomata on T380994.
In short, given the newly streamlined approval policy for direct WMF staff access to analytics-privatedata-users (T370424), the purpose of this task is to consider whether it makes sense to extend the same to WMDE staff.
As noted in T380994, these requests are going to be rarer (one data point: the last one of these access requests from a WMDE staff member appears to have been 2 months ago), so the reduction in overhead is clearly smaller.
At the same time, having different policies seems like a potential source of confusion.
