I think it's not a good idea, as it trains people to do the opposite
thing of what it's intended to train people for. I.e. "mandatory, but
put 'whatever' there" IMHO is worse than non-mandatory but supported by
common consensus. If we're setting up a new system, we shouldn't set it
up so we constantly work around it.

In theory, this is true. In practice, there are numerous occasions where
people have to self-+2 - typoes, forgotten files, CI glitches, rebases,
etc. Well, ok, "have to" is a strong word here - all of it can be worked
around by dragging in somebody and asking them "please +2 this" - but
again, that would be working against the setup and also training people
that the system sucks and they have to work around it to be effective.
