This is my point: "use most rules, but not all".. and "I've been more conservative than X but I did not need to be". What I am seeing is that there is, in some collective form, a set of consistent rules (in the form of ranges) that are strongly enforced and yet not written down.

Let's write them all  down here and now, put them in some file for others to read and to refer to. Maybe even con someone to write a lint-like script for those rules.
