It's too easy to fuck up the RO's plans as a CT by being retarded and ordering shit behind their back. The RO can look away for one second and then before you know it, oops, the CT just approved HPR orders and now you have no points left.

Then as a smart RO you order them to not order anything without letting you decide first. If they do, they disobeyed your order, so slap an insub.
I could count that also as Disorderly Conduct since they are wasting important points on two peashooters instead of something usefull.
Neglect of duty seems to fit aswell.
And theft, since basically RO owns those points.
Stripping them out of authorization ability will be a pain in the ass during low-pop when RO is usually missing. Also shipside benos would be eager to target RO more, since only he could order more gear and with the strict rule on taking ID's will not help either.
Insub or not, you're still 200 points down after they've ordered the HPR. And what's stopping that from happening round after round?
What about decent cargo techs that are actually helping out while the RO is stuck in CIC or something? Punishing everyone for one person sounds dumb. If someone is intentionally burning points you could Ahelp it seeing as the HPR is only 60 points at the start so burning 200 is grief imo.
Can't blame staff on that. Ammo and metal is usefull always, so this could be resolved IC. It's easy to spot grief and if somebody decides to RP a naughty CT that orders HPR's and AP ammo for marines, then it's fair game.
Lowpop rounds would be pretty much screwed if there were only CTs and they couldn't order any new equipment.
It would also make RO basically immune to marine law if the MPs/CO wanted to have supplies at all.
No thanks.

Maybe reserve some points so only the RO and above can spend them? Or letting the RO change permissions on the console.
As long as in lowpop that lone hero CT can still get people the metal they need.
