The alarming trend is the folks who won't do things, unless there is a
guideline for them.  I hate having an abundance of guidlines just like
you do, however almost all the recent guidelines have been done in
reaction to a lack of people following "best practices".  Ergo we create
guidelines to /help/ people understand what those best practices are.
