And just where does WP:CONTEXT or any other guideline say that? From my reading it doesn't. Exceptions to rules or guidelines can't solely exist in the lacunae of convention and consensus, they need to be explicitly written. Until it's written as a de jure exception to WP:CONTEXT, I'd very much inclined to disagree with the above statement.
IMO, you have it the wrong way round. Rules and guidelines exist to codify accepted practise, and frequently lag behind it.
