I understand this sentiment but I believe these days the only reason that most of them want to know "what the rules are" is because they want to comply but it's often not evident how. The quality (and existence) of postmaster portals and knowledge bases varies greatly. The informative value of SMTP error messages varies greatly. The ability to communicate with a postmaster varies greatly. You can't really blame them (particularly the smaller ones) for sometimes being confused about what's needed to get their transactional or opt-in email into inboxes.
