This one:

(though you might say it is not a guideline)

If I am not mistaken, burning the exact same mp3 or whatever will result 
in different discIDs dependent on the which burner one uses. Maybe even 
with which program?

Thus, if we allow this, we will get hundreds of discIDs for some 
releases, and most of these will only be useful to someone who happens 
to burn their music in the exact same way on the same hardware as the 
one who originally added the discID.

IMHO this is not useful, and we thus should not allow it as it does get 
in the way. With which I mean that as we are displaying the release 
events below the discIDs, having 100 or more of them on a release is not 
very nice.
