What you're describing is the difference between Fine Grained Authorization (FGA) and traditional Role-based Access Control (RBAC). This article covers the difference: https://www.osohq.com/learn/what-is-fine-grained-authorizati... (disclaimer: I used to work there but continue to be a fan of their documentation).
Sort of, but not really. OAuth isn’t RBAC and the Dropbox chooser isn’t FGA in the sense of that article. My book (linked from my profile) covers the distinctions in more detail in chapters 7, 8 and 9.
