So sum it up: If you don't know a rule, it still applies to you. If you register a domain in Libya you have to play by their rules and it is your responsibility to try and understand them.

And they reserve the right to make up more rules on the go.
I think that's the most important bit here, even if you understood the rules and had them translated and you abided (sp?) religiously (in this case that is to be taken literally it seems) by them, you could still lose your domain.
So building on a .ly is building on quicksand, and likely that goes for a whole bunch of other tlds.
