False dichotomy. The choice is not between "we have to", and "we cannot".
The choice is between "we choose to because it's the normal situation to so do" and "we choose not to because there are compelling reasons not to".
If we cannot stick to the true choices then we cannot discuss the problem accurately.

It depends on your culture. Many people think it is common sense to do the exact opposite. Ie, only do things because there are compelling reasons to do it. Wikipedia is multi-cultural so it is probably natural that it goes for a white-list approach instead of a black-list approach for content. Truth is an anomaly of the matrix anyway. In reality it should never occur.
