Not entirely, but you are on the right track. Better yet is in the

Rule 42 of the Code, "No one shall speak to the Man at the Helm,"
had been completed by the Bellman himself with the words "and
the Man at the Helm shall speak to no one."
And there is yet another elsewhere which I leave for the very tall.
