How to resolve deployment of Security Settings metadata throwing error: canUsersGrantLoginAccess

I was trying to figure out what was causing the non-explanatory error on deploying the security settings metadata file. 

The issue surfaced, when I switched the deploying user from having the standard System Admin profile to a custom Minimum Access profile with added permissions on top. 

The solution was to grant the deploying user the system permission of Manage Login Access Policies. Once this permission was granted, then the deploying user was no longer facing the problem.
