To be precise: execute access, not write access.
However, neither that nor deleting the dir gives the exact "Operation not
permitted" error.
I had deleted the directory using the Finder, so "cd .." led to
"~/.Trash". If I delete it using "rm -r", I get a slightly different
message.

I installed R from CRAN, and am not running the current version: I'm
still on 4.3.1, with OS also kind of old: Monterey 12.7.3, so I was
surprised by this. Is anyone else seeing it?
This happens when you don't have write access in the current dir:
mkdir /tmp/test
cd /tmp/test
chmod 0 .
R CMD INSTALL --help
