Right, I know that can not be easily verified.  But it is the "Spirit" 
of the rules.  If the rules say it is to be one thing or another and 
not  just a random number, then it should be one of those two numbers 
and nothing else it is in the rules is it not?

Just an amateur code of ethics thing to me.  it's a rule, so it's a rule.
