Here I was talking about the advise you plan to give.
Here I am simply suggesting that advising to "remove the package" is fine as long as it is also clear that following the kind of rules I suggested would be equivalent (so it could be added in the advise as well, in context near the advise, etc). > Why spend more time discussing this?
