It's surprising only bureaucrats can assign this right… that's not the case on Wikimedia projects, but it is confirmed by the help page about user rights. I have updated the policies page to note that a bureaucrat must be asked to give the right once an administrator has accepted the request because administrators are not able to give it themselves.

The help page seems to say the same is true for the bot right. Can someone confirm?
