It is against the rules though
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47261561 seems like a better source for the policy.
What a bizarre way to run a community. The guidelines make no mention of this "rule," does dang not have the ability to edit them?
I would be worried the reason for the flag wasn't _immediately_ obvious. Maybe if there was a drop-down for the rule being violated it would help.
