100% true, and a great counterpoint.

Copium/denialThat's well beyond even power user (imo) and into the forensic analysis realm though, where you should probably be using dedicated tools. I'm pretty sure there are still ways around this, ways to back up and restore the ACLs, but I haven't ran into a need to not touch the modified timestamp in the decade or so I've been doing tech work professionally nor in the decade before as simply a young enthusiast. There's still ways around that timestamp too, and arguments to be made that adjusting the ACL is touching metadata rather than the file itself.

I do what I can to stay out of ACLs at my workplace.

Windows ACLs are far more complicated than they have any right to be, and file perms are generally far simpler on Linux.
