I agree with that.
Further, the way it is written would simply encourage cantankerous
people like me to do exactly what it says I must not do. What exactly
is anyone going to do about it? Tickle me with a feather? Tell the
world my servers don't conform to the BCP? Why would I care?
A much better approach, rather than attempting to create some totally
unenforceable rules, would be to simply explain the problems, and advise
people how to avoid them, and why they should.
