Well, we have to talk about what enforcement means? Ok. If a developer declines to, say, optify some program and a recommendation is posted that the program not be used, that is a kind of enforcement. Developers who don't follow that guideline are penalized by being criticized.

So, you wanted an example of enforcement. Are you claiming that uniformity among developers is totally not enforced in any way?

Enforcement does not mean that anyone who disagrees gets a bullet in the head. It means that penalties are attached to certain behaviors. No society exists without various enforcements of rules, written or unwritten.

Now we have had our refresher in Sociology 1a. Any more questions?
