This is a huge logical error. You just proposed to use the lowest common denominator, but then your response to the analogy is that other people are constrained by rules. Yes, they are constrained by rules, that are very complex, and even then, the constraint ensures a minimal standard, it doesn't block you from creativity. Fire prevention rules will define how wide a corridor has to be, but it won't forbid you to build a wider corridor or to paint its walls.
BTW editing your post to answer a post below you wasn't the smartest thing to do…
- rusk 3y agoNo I meant the standardised approach is the lowest common denominator. It’s the least common unit that has been agreed upon. Category Error at worst, but well within colloquial bounds.
