The world of internet would be a _much_ better place if everyone at least have read this. I tried my best to adhere to these rules in any social network.

It is unfortunate that the rules are so vague/up for interpretation, and when you break them, it isn't explained to you that you broke them. The rule just gets cited and there you go.

Rules have to be vague to some extent no? Because language and people are vague.

If it was precise then that'd be a 500 page legal document for site guidelines.

Yes, but if the goal is to help people participate, explaining what they did wrong rather than "we don't do that here" helps.

If the goal is "we only want people like us here" then keeping the status quo is good.
