If the b'crat did have an issue with the admin adopting the wiki then it can be reasonably assumed that they would have responded one way or another.

As for the lack of (linked) community discussion, I can't explain. But again, the request is over three years old. It's basically water under the bridge.

The other admin didn't say anything because they didn't think the user would be able to go behind their back to obtain these rights. It may seem like water under the bridge to users who aren't working on this wiki, but for those who are, it's bringing up issues (hence the comment about not wanting to divulge details)
