Great -- I'll fall back to reading the discussion so see if any easily
actionable rules materialize.  I'm not hopeful any sensible
interpretation of the current rules makes coherent sense or is
actionable at justifiable cost.  It would pacify my OCD to follow some
rule here; this concern often comes up for packages I contribute to.
The solution is mostly random depending on circumstances of the
particular package.  I don't care a lot about how the rule is as long as
it make sense and is actionable for all packages.
