Again and again, those of us who wish to question the wisdom of the rules are subjected to this ridiculous strawman that what we're actually arguing is that the rules don't apply to us.
And now,
for the elevendy quintillionth time, let me say clearly:
That is not what we're saying. If you think it is, you haven't been reading what we've written.
I appreciate the perspective you bring as an employee -- it's extremely helpful. No one is forcing you to engage in the argument about whether the rules are good or not. But you asserted that the rules serve a purpose, and I think you're wrong about that, at least to the extent that the rules impose dimensional limits on two of the three dimensions. If you don't want to engage further on that issue, so be it. But don't act like anyone who questions that rule is an anarchist.
