Agreed. I also have this strong deja-vu feeling we had this discussion before and decided that instead of dictating ranges we would instead define an interface where those ranged can be configured so everyone can choose their own. That makes a lot of sense, since we can never agree on any rule that doesn't violate lots of existing setups.
