And on that note David: Following that logic, since none of the modules has currently any PR stating a tool implementing the module can remove the element, technically, once added a module element cannot be removed ...ever. Even by the tool that placed it there.

That's the problem with "MUST preserve" at the default level: It forces you to define module-specific PRs where you can't possibly think about everything. That results in default PRs that are simply impossible to enforce.

But it's ok, I'm past spending time discussing it.
Have a good week-end,
