Honestly I don't think that adding a custom declarative language for
this does not make the maintenance any simpler or conforms with our
vision of decreasing the maintenance burden by introducing many random
languages.

Also additionally we'd have the parser engine to maintain.

Many of the check would look much simpler when described by actual code.

I'm not arguing against the actual list of more granular facts, but the
same can be achieved with much more understandable regular code.
