If you don’t trust someone to change your code to make small improvements, it sounds like you have a trust problem, not the other way around.

Working on a software project as a large team is like growing a garden, not building a house. Just because someone planted a hedge doesn’t mean it can’t be improved by pruning it.

Trust would allow that the code is modified in the first place, but then a code review needs to happen anyway to ensure that at least one more person is aware of the change and as a sanity check that the change makes sense.
