Thanks for your comment! I remember seeing that HN allows resubmitting a link if it has 0 comments.

But it seems like it was just a comment/speculation, and it has nothing to do with the guidelines that you added. Thanks for pointing it out!

Resubmitting a few times if you don't get traction is fine, getting friends, colleagues and relations to upvote or comment on your post is not, though.
