==Proposal:: Drop the two redundant (and Procrustean) bullet points==
The two Procrustean clauses ("''Solutions '''must''' work by XYZ ...''" "'''''Do not''' use algorithms that XYZ ...''") are redundant and contrary to the aims of Rosetta Code.

Rosetta Code users should be allowed to do what is described on the landing page – namely, to express and learn a ''variety of approaches''.

I suggest that the quality of this task is improved by deleting the two Procrustean clauses. [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 11:11, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
