Rather than just reconsidering the rule, you might simply replace it
with "no multi-term expressions in the view". Not a viable goal in
all cases, but pretty darn close. Views shouldn't have logic apart
from that directly concerned with the view structure (looping rows in
a table, conditionally displaying an action button, etc.). All the
dynamic values and conditional expressions should be single terms
(often - usually? - a method call):
#person.getAge()#
not
#dateDiff('yyyy', dateOfBirth, now())#
<cfif person.isMinor()>
not
<cfif person.getAge() GT AGE_OF_MAJORITY>

For me, I would probably pass AgeOfMajority into my service component
and have it return an "isMinor" column. If that wasn't a possibility,
then I would have my page controller add that column to the query.
I would also have an "age" column in the query returned from the service
(assuming it was in the fieldlist).
I like a clean view with no method calls.
