Rules are norms of generalization that apply to the majority of cases, so to speak, 99 out of 100. Laws apply in all cases without any exception. When people criticize a rule because it doesn't apply to their specific case, they are actually confirming the nature of the rule and confusing it with a law. The fact that a rule doesn't apply in 1 out of 100 cases only shows that in the other 99 cases, the same rule applies.
