How do you apply design factors to IT Audits. Just overheard someone explain 'level of aggregation' for IT Security policies by describing how many people have access to it. Why is this a thing???

I agree. For the most part it doesn’t really make sense for IT controls. One example for a user review control.... if you have an ERP system with hundreds of users and only one person is performing the review.. I would say the level of aggregation is high as the review is not partitioned out and therefore predictability would be low.
