So a newcomer sees 20 paragraphs about how you're not supposed to edit your

I don't think that'll work unless you make the exemption prominent enough that
it doesn't seem like an afterthought to anyone reading the page. And that I
don't think is possible. Ideally, we should soften the language that
implies a near-absolute prohibition, but nobody will stand for that.
