I see what you mean, I guess the mix-up here is that we have different working definitions of "enforcement".

For example, I would argue that Moxie's desire for unofficial clients to not use the word "Signal" in their project name is a statement of policy, whereas the takedown requests to remove the projects from GitHub and the Play Store are examples of enforcement of that policy.

That said I think I can be convinced that directly informing a violator of your policy of said policy is a type of enforcement in itself.
