I'm not saying that it actually is more official, just that a subset of readers could see it as more official.

> readers are to try to trust you, even though you have been wrong previously in discussions with me here.

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

> The others have not been taken back and can be seen as a rationale basis to be as clarifications to your FAQ/TOS.

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

> DD. The golden Rule in Judaism involves justice and morality. 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?

I think of the Golden Rule as "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". I'd like others to use their judgment when applying rules to me, so I use my judgment when applying rules to them.

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