Goal

Are SYS grants really needed for Atomic and Config schemas?
It was noticed that the schema_creator, when generating the schema creation scripts, also adds the following SYS grants:

grant select on SYS.V_$PARAMETER to <CONFIG USER>
/
grant select on SYS.V_$PARAMETER to <ATOMIC USER>
/
grant select on sys.dba_free_space to <ATOMIC USER>
/
grant select on sys.dba_tables to <ATOMIC USER>
/
grant select on sys.Dba_tab_columns to <ATOMIC USER>
/

You would like to revoke the above grants due to some internal security polices which prohibit granting them for the UAT and PROD environments.
