Thanks for edits but I think you missed the main reason, it's mostly about the 
legal umbrella and protection we give our (P)PMC’s. If they do something 
outside of what is prescribed then there are  possible consequences. See [1] 
"Deviations from this policy may have an adverse effect on the legal shield's 
effectiveness, or the insurance premiums Apache pays to protect officers and 
directors, so are strongly discouraged without prior, explicit board approval” 
While there is still a risk of someone taking legal action that’s less likely.

Thanks,
Justin
