As a (potentially fool) admin... I can think of reasons to legitimately say "no" which are not (in any sane workplace) subject to managerial override. They mostly fall into the category of "You want me to let you suck up all the memory on $RANDOM_MULTIUSER_PRODUCTION_HOST and bring other, potentially business-critical, processes to their knees as they wait for the disk to finish thrashing? No!" But, then, in a sane workplace, this sort of development would most likely be taking place on the developer's private workstation, or at least on a dedicated shared development machine, so those sorts of reasons wouldn't apply.
