I mean why protect him? Either gas him or if not, come out and say who it was.

Secrecy just makes everything even more stupid.
I'm speculating, but I bet the permission came from higher up, as in a guy like Anselmi. And being a classic MLSE executive he didn't care to have Cochrane embarrassed later.
