Precisely why it is a stupid regulation
Stupid regulations are those that cannot be clearly defined and therefore not properly enforced
If the reg cannot be enforced in black and white terms with no grey area, it is a stupid reg and should never exist
If a regulation exists just for the purpose of imposing some kind of ethic, the reason has to be questioned
