No, you're telling me that that's what I'm thinking. I haven't said what I'm thinking.
If I _were_ to do so, it would sound like "There's no point in hating the rules, because the rules don't care. Hate the players, because they are the ones who care enough about them to follow them."
I don't care if these rules are explicit or not; I care that they don't produce the outcome I want. And the people who follow those rules are not absolved by weakness, ignorance, self-interest, or any other excuse in failing to resist those rules.
(There's no rule that says anything done in self-interest is correct. Sometimes it is correct to make sacrifices for others.)
