Perhaps the design guidelines could go along the lines of:

Menus with text don't need tooltips.
Menus with icons need tooltips.

This is the behaviour of clickable 'things' in applications which are
represented by either text or icons.

(It might be helpful to assume that novice users don't initially
recognise icons without text as menus.)
