This is classic "optimization of x destroys the rest of the alphabet." I wish more businesses employed some sort of systems thinking and realized that rules are coordination mechanisms that carry the capacity to destroy value. They're absolutely great when they create predictability and coordination at minimal cost, but they can destroy your company if all they do is impede activities that generate the value your business actually earns profit from.
