There really shouldn't be an issue getting work approved and visible to the whole team (if anything for team input, collaboration, opportunities for others to object).
If you're working for the benefit of the product/team I don't see why you would need to, or have an issue with this.
> team input, collaboration, opportunities for others to object
You don't always need a ticket for this, if it applies at all. I'm not unaware of these benefits, but the burden lies with you to demonstrate devs cannot be trusted to be autonomous, or choose the appropriate mode of collaboration.
> getting work approved
Why is this always needed?
> If you're working for the benefit
This is a strawman, you can do this without the overhead.
Who do the approvers seek approval from, for the same reason(s), and who do they seek approval from?
> visible to the whole team
This is what standup / status updates are for. It takes all of a few seconds, no approvals needed.

Strange.
