honestly I see only reasonable requests (plus selling your data if you didn't check that off). These look all like needed features to interact with friends between battle net and discord, they're a lot because discord made them "granular"
Oh, yeah, permission to manage a person's friends list in Discord and even block them is a totally "reasonable request".
/s
Guess how they can allow you to do that from battle net
And with those permissions they can also do it themselves whenever they see fit from their systems without asking you about it or informing you about it.
Mind you, the really juicy stuff that can be used to make money from is all the information about anything and everything you might be doing in Discord which can be sold to, amongst others, advertisers, rather than the active management stuff.
Somebody in Blizzard activelly decided that merelly letting you post in and read posts from Discord via Battle.Net wasn't enough and it's pretty valid to wonder if the decision path was "let's do a full Discord client in Battle.Net to make it even better for our customers and for that we need permissions for just about everything in Discord" or "let's get access to information about just about everything our customers do in Discord and we need to make a full Discord client in Battle.net to justify that".
I know that the answer I would bet on 2 decades ago before the enshittification era isn't the same I would bet on now.
