Hi Soren, thanks for the proposal! I also think that it is time to adjust our standards. I am not in favor of writing rules that say that there is no rule. Maybe we can go one step further and just modify the rule about complaining in private to be: If you want to complain to someone that they wrapped or did not wrap their lines, or that the sent you a carbon copy, do it privately.
