(He, Him)
I can imagine a set of problems connected with cases beyond where the rules extend, to which - "Rule 0 is the fix for these problems" - ought to be a reasonable response... seeing as that is one of the most often cited motives for Rule 0's existence in the first place.Yeah. The usual issue is with people who will, essentially, try to use Rule Zero and its kin to dismiss any problem they don't share (or, sometimes, the concept that a problem can legitimately exist for people with a given game system without the problem being the person).
The reason this one tends to get as much pushback is, to be blunt, not everyone with a problem with a rule can fix it, even if they want to; not everyone is a GM, or doesn't play in an organized play setting where they're stuck with whatever the "official" rule is.
What I think the Oberoni deals with is relying on Rule 0 to solve problems it wasn't invented for. (Here I speak not of the literal 3e D&D Rule 0 text, but fairly widely held notions about the purpose of a rule-creating power in the game. Whether or not one agrees with them.)
