Hi, Hephaestos. 

I don't think this is right at all; I see a lot of room for common
sense, and acting to limit disruption, damage,
etc. is always a good thing.

But don't be surprised if others censure you for doing 
what is not clearly common sense to them, and try not to 
let it sting too much.

So let me see if I have this straight. 

As long as a user holds strictly to written policy, he/she may cause
as much disruption, damage and hell as possible, and community
consensus on a matter is secondary to ill-thought-out and often
unenforced legalistic jargon.

Does that pretty much sum it up?
