Only if you allow permissions to set a lifecycle rule...

You don't set the lifecycle rule at runtime. You set it at environment setup time. The credentials that put your object don't have to have the power to set lifecycle permissions.

You obviously don't put your environment setup user in your app. That would be utterly retarded.

Not useful for me at environment setup time because I never want any of my data deleted. The only time is if I decide to abandon that cloud provider.
