True, no one's perfect. I did admit I was wrong.

True, a subset of readers could see them that way.

How does that Golden Rule allow you to be either be arbitrary, capricious or discriminatory , if you agree that your use of selective enforcement could be thought by a subset of readers to be another name for using discrimination by not applying your rules equally?

True, a subset of readers could see using judgment as discrimination.
