When Jacob and I originally drafted the CoC, we specifically included an enumeration of some disallowed behaviors on the recommendation of the Ada Initiative -- it was their view that the list helped to minimize rules lawyering, whereby someone attempts to explain how they could not have known their behavior was disallowed.
On reflection, I completely agree with their reasoning and am very glad we included it.
