There were some confusing definitions regarding the valuation of budget investments. In the controller, `CommentableActions` was included, which includes the update action. In the abilities, a valuator was given permission to update an investment. However, the action to update an investment didn't work because there is no route defined to do so. The ability was defined so valuators could access the "edit" action, which will not call the "update" action but the "valuate" action. Since internally "edit" and "update" use the same permission, it worked. But then we added permission for regular users to update budget investments, and these permissions were allowing valuators to update another user's investment. After this change, everything seems to work properly since we check authorization in the controller itself instead of using abilities.
