Research direction
Reproduce the issue by creating a shared Publicize connection, switching to an author account, and opening a post's Publicize > Edit Details controls. Trace the checkbox rendering and permission handling from that screen; done means authors can toggle the Publicize settings instead of seeing disabled checkboxes.
