Because developing a tool solely for a roundtrip test is probably a waste of time. Perhaps it's an easier exercise than I think but I would have thought you could manually test it far quicker and more thoroughly than by automating the process

Thank you for asking.

In my particular use case we need strict access control.

Really depends on the situation.
