Hi, For what it's worth, I agree that the requirePropertyDiverges rule is difficult to use (and maybe buggy?). After playing with it some months ago, I concluded that it was not going to work for me. That's why I ended up writing my own rule.
If you want to ensure that the description is set in each child POM, maybe the scijava-maven-plugin's requireElements rule _can_ help you here? Or do you, again, only want to set the description in some intermediate POM layer?
