The difference between "a rule has been cut from the list" and "a rule is not on the list" only lasts a day or two. After that, no one will remember.

(I wouldn't say "lifted", though, since that implies quite a bit more.)

(Btw, I'm going to put some of that language back into the guidelines since so many people protested its removal - so this point is about to get even more theoretical!)
