That's an easy one. If there was a strict rule set up on these things, a checklist that one could definitively say yes or no, then there would also be users who would find ways around it, ways to offend, upset, annoy, provoke, or distress, that they could claim wasn't strictly "against" the rules. We saw that with "civil POV warriors". IAR guarantees that no matter how sneaky their evasion, we can say to someone "yes you did follow the strict rules. But you're still not following the spirit of them."
