Yss, they do.

The points in the Kind Communication Guidelines are not rules -- they
don't draw precise lines.  They are guidelines to apply, and how to
apply them is a matter of judgment.  We should never write anything to
offend a demographic group.  But when someone takes offense where no
offense was intended, we have to judge the issue by its specifics.
