That does not (as I read it) state that we can bypass RTC for
non-committers. Allowing non-committers access is one thing, but allowing
them to change the source (in this case text) directly is quite another.

Translated text is being compiled into our binaries, so there are no
difference for source code and and translations.

I have no problem (infra might see it differently) if non-committers do a
login and provide suggestions (as today), that way we keep RTC.
