I don't recall the details, but I think most people wanted as few 
restrictions as possible. "Methodological restrictions" have a bad history 
in Ada, and thus we often avoid them. Clearly a tool like AdaControl can 
enforce style rules beyond those the language requires, and that was thought 
to be the best option here.
