Rules have to be vague to some extent no? Because language and people are vague.

If it was precise then that'd be a 500 page legal document for site guidelines.

Yes, but if the goal is to help people participate, explaining what they did wrong rather than "we don't do that here" helps.

If the goal is "we only want people like us here" then keeping the status quo is good.

How would that improve things if only a tiny fraction of users actually remember and understand even half of the 500 pages?

[roflyear]

What do you mean by 500 pages?
