Someone has to make sure they're following the rules. If that means a human
verifies the list rules, a human verifies the list rules. And if you can't
trust the users, that means someone you trust has to do a check to make
sure.
Is it a bit of a hassle? Yeah. But who does this benefit, and so should bear
the burden of the hassle?
