"I agree fully with Bob and Ken , SPC guide is a must have/must follow
guide to such things."

Fine, just so long as "must follow" means "must follow most of the time
when appropriate". These are after all guidelines and not absolute rules.
Often turning guidelines into absolute rules makes them harmful instead
of helpful. Of course this does not apply to simple layout rules, but the
SPC guide goes far beyond that.
