As a rule IAR should take second place only to "Assume good faith".
And "neutral point of view" and "verifiability" and the copyright policy and "no original research" and "no personal attacks"...
But I'm fine with IAR as it is worded in the simplified ruleset:
"Ignore all rules, including this one. Don't worry! If you just want to add some useful information to an article in a commonsense way, DO SO. On the other hand, if someone suggests that there is an established and sensible way to do something, please ignore this rule and listen to them."
It's when IgnoreAllRules turns into IgnoreAllOtherOpinions when I really start getting scared.
