It's not worth discussing this again at length (see previous threads for
more discussion), but those *guidelines* should apply to all mailing
list users (you've entirely misused the word "injunction" here).

As with all guidelines, people will choose to ignore them. That's a
choice which is available to them. If someone very important in the
community makes that choice, I don't think that it makes the guidelines
any less important, or even any less authoritative.
