Do you get permission from stakeholders before you optimize or do you see a "bent pipe" and just straighten it? If you just do stuff to other people's stuff, right or wrong, I can see how you would get fired. Chaotic good is still chaotic.
Depends. I usually start out getting permission. But as time progresses, these permissions start to become very sparse. Something I repaired in the past (and did so correctly), I wouldn’t get permission later. Reasons were that people felt like too much was changing.
