In that case, declaring "DO NOT WRAP YOUR LEFT THUMB" is no more helpful than declaring there are no rules. Do you think many of the great players we respect today worried about a certain set of rules? I think not. Many made their names by ignoring drivel like "DO NOT WRAP YOUR LEFT THUMB". Especially followed by "You're not Jimmy Page or Jimi Hendrix".
