Most people don’t like rules because they mean someone is telling them what to do. Rules generally have a negative connotation because they are limiting.
Then there are standards. Standards can seem like platitudes. They are aspirational but at times seem unrealistic, bereft of expectations that seem achievable. They are often part of mission statements in a grand vision or plan, shouted to the sky to begin and then forgotten in execution. Standards are hard to live up to and maintain.
