+Groups inheritance
+==================
+
+Even though TYPO3 does not limit the depth of backend user group inheritance,
+it's advisable to avoid complex setups. Typically, 1 or 2 levels of inheritance
+should suffice. Such flat structures offer significant advantages over more complex,
+deeper inheritances, including easier maintenance, updates, and verification
+of the sources of specific permissions.

+.. note::
+    Avoid complex inheritance within backend user groups. One or two levels of inheritance should suffice and make permissions easier to maintain.
