Theoretically, it is possible to accept any kind of risk.

By the way, the risks are accepted (or not accepted) by only analyzing the risks, not by analyzing associated controls. Usually, the risks that would require classification are related to confidential information.

If you handle some confidential information from your clients, usually the risk is that people handling those information won't know the rules for protecting such confidential information. Therefore, in such cases classification and associated rules for protection are the best way to resolve such risk - so in most cases controls from A.8.2 are found applicable.
