I don't want to create or enforce rules, sometimes it's OK and actually
better to bend them, but it takes certain care and taste to known when
they can be bent.  This is not the right time.

I'm just asking you to realize, particularly in this case, that your

the ports tree.  There are no reasons how could this be any better than
to follow existing, clearly visible, and universally adhered practice.
