| ankurwa10 | I think it is by and large intuitive. Ofcourse, for specific COE and SPC, specific conducts may relate to them. But most of the COE and SPC are intuitive, as they describe 'normative' behaviour and therefore, should be what can be considered reasonable. There are exceptions though. |
| japheth | straight forward question. |
