This is all perfectly reasonable, but begs one question, where do we stop codifying self-evident truths (or who is the ultimiate judge of what is self-evident and what isn't), since taking the above to extreme we will end up adding stuff like: you must use close to dispose of open-ed descriptors and such like.
It's a matter of pragmatism, if a lot of patches are routinely rejected due to some error then it makes sense to add it to CODING_STYLE, even if they are not exactly style decisions. If not then they just dilute that document.
