While that may be true, I’ll say that as a native English speaker that reading is not the most obvious reading of “row rule”, which to me would be “A determinate method prescribed for performing any operation and producing a certain result.”

Indeed a “CSS rule” is already a thing and it has nothing to do with lines.

Shouldn't make a difference; we had the element `<hr>` (horizontal rule) since before CSS, after all.

honestly didn't know hr actually stood for that, huh
A ruler is an object that helps you draw lines.

It's also the monarch that makes the rules, but even the rules help you stay within the lines.
