Account.Access: Apps and Policies: Edit
Allows Zero Trust Network Access configuration to to be done (for things like securing the admin area of a site).

Account.Access: Organizations, Identity Providers, and Groups: Read
Allows check to make sure site has an identity provider setup (needed in order to create Zero Trust Network Access policies).

Account.Allow Request Tracer: Read
Allows the HTTP Request Trace tool to work.

Account.Billing: Read
This is used to determine if a zone is on a paid or free plan. When a site is using R2 for object storage, there's an additional optional setting that allows a site to use HMAC token authentication for a bucket (HMAC token authentication is not available on Cloudflare free plans), so the option to enable it is only presented to a site that is not on a free plan.
