Robert Duff says

"Nor me.  But since we haven't defined what "style" means, this is pretty
meaningless.  There are some rules in the RM that could be considered
"style rules", and yet they are absolute -- the compiler will complain
if you violate them."


OK, sorry, I thought the definition was clear. To me style rules are rules
that are placed ON TOP of the language rules, so a language rule is not
by definition a style rule. To me if a style rule is arguably reasonable
as an absolute rule, rather than a guideline, it should have been an
enforced language rule -- of course this rule itself is more of a 
guideline :-)
