I’m a fiction writer and I don’t have such expectations of this list.
Some publishers have a short list of things they don’t take due to having too many submitted. I don’t think that’s what this list it. For one it is far too detailed to keep updated.
I see this list as a subset of bad storytelling they were seeing often. It’s not a subset of things they didn’t accept. (There is significant overlap.) It’s an important distinction.
Lists like these get published occasionally and they become part of the history of the internet. They truly are a snapshot in time.
