I know that, but the way the system is now you can assign more rights to yourself as a moderator than was originally intended by the Admin.
I just made a test:
My forum is setup so only groups assigned "Admin Access" is allowed to upload files and make polls. I have only allowed my Administrator group admin access so they should be the only ones with this right.
My Moderators are only allowed "Moderator Access" which doesn't give them right to upload and make polls.
With the current functionality it is possible for a Moderator to invite himself or somebody else and assign "Admin Access" so they are now able to upload files and make polls.
I think the "Admin Access" should be excluded from the selection unless the one performing moderation is an Administrator.
