Guess what? The world is filled with imperfection.

The line of reasoning "Since I can't come up with a perfect solution, so instead I'll do nothing at all", is a terrible approach.

The courts get things wrong, credit card fraud detection gets things wrong, anti-virus gets things wrong. Tons of things aren't perfect - that's the real world.

The answer of "well I can't come up with a perfect version of those so let's do nothing" is preposterous.

It is no stretch of logic to say that moderation rules should be clear, not according to the whim of the moderator.
