That's a pretty negative view of policies and guidelines, which I'm not sure I agree with. It can certainly happen that two guidelines give conflicting advice for a given situation. That doesn't mean the two guidelines are wrong, it means that life is complicated. However, if you find two guidelines that are always in contradiction (and I don't mean two principles that exist in dynamic equilibrium like "build the web" versus "only make links that are relevant to the context"), please point them out.
