Requesting to learn the rationale behind these rules

[ChemMitch]

Type of issue

Typo

Description

When someone says "you shouldn't do this" or "you must do that," I naturally want to know why.
It helps to see rules as useful guidelines rather than arbitrary decrees.

Also, can you teach these rules to Intellisense because it generated code that violated the guidelines.

Explanation: failure to comply will result in the test method being ignored

That is useful info but it still does not answer the question of what these specific guidelines are designed to accomplish.
Analogy: you're getting on a boat and the crew says 'put on a life vest.'
You say 'why is that?'
Crew member says 'Because we won't let you on the boat without one.' That's an obey-me-or-else statement.
A second crew member says 'Because it can save your life if we capsize.' That provides a rationale that enhances understanding.
I'm looking for the rationale as to why those specific items.
