As always we review rules as part of an ongoing process. If it ever gets to the point that a rule is being abused or we feel that a rule is becoming too difficult to implement we will change it.

Not a hypothetical one . A real one as one would arise . 

This is a mere suggestion and I don't have reason to believe this isn't already happening to some extent , in which case I'm merely encouraging it .

I know what you're trying to say. I think you meant hypothetically hearing from hypothetical abusers of rules not presently hearing from hypothetical abusers of rules.

We'll deal with scenarios when they actually happen, not before.
