Let's have a quick look at some of the current 'rules'.

It's OK to bayonet, shoot, stab, nuke, blow up, strangle people.

It's not OK to use landmines, gas, lasers(to blind), starve people.

Either way you're dead. Why does it matter if you get bayonetted (good) but not blinded by a laser (bad)?

Thats why it's ridiculous.
