Change in Survey Copy Permissions in Latest LS Version

==================
Hi,
After upgrading to the latest version of LS, we’ve noticed a change in survey copy permissions.

In previous versions, any user with some access to a survey was able to create a copy of it. In the current version, it appears that only the survey owner can copy the survey.

To work around this, users can export the survey as an LSS file and then re-import it — but this is not ideal.

Could you please clarify:
  • Is this change in behavior intentional?
  • If so, what is the rationale behind restricting copy permissions to the owner?
  • Is there a configuration or permission setting we may be missing to restore the previous behavior?

Thanks in advance for your clarification.
