Owner & Admin Perms
The Server Owner & Administrator permission bypass restrictions/permission rules. These are the highest threat accounts, they deserve their own section in addition to Role Hierarchy

Kept in cold storage (offline), only used to setup the server and to make changes to Administrators and/or transfer ownership. As this role bypasses ALL restrictions, permissions, and hierarchy rules it DOES NOT need any additional roles within the server.
Unmarked as can be, not truly unmarked. If Discord removes the Crown Icon then we could truly hide the Server Owner from all users. Still with these practices and larger servers with many users, it should be difficult to find/spot the owner.
Furthermore, make it as difficult to identify as possible. Use a random name, have it tied to a random (preferably freshly created) email, unassociated with brand/company and kept offline.
This role should only be used in the work server, during work hours, and not tied to an account used in other servers nor used to visit other Discord servers. This permission can be tied to a (+) role or something random, not visible on the right-side user list and "hidden."
Only those who understand this document, Discord security in general and are trusted operators on the backend should be given this role. Front-end staff, users, and most bots NEVER need Administrator permissions and high-threat channels and permissions.
Hidden is again not truly hidden as one can click on the user to see all their roles, even those not visible on the right user list. If Discord allowed these to truly be hidden, it would be even better, but for now this works fine.
