I tend to agree, although this can be one of those areas where GLOs look to other organization's policies for examples.
Without getting specific as to any particular policy, there is a legal principal that a statute or regulation that imposes penalties on a person ought to be sufficiently specific that a reasonable person can understand what is prohibited and what it not. Otherwise, the statute or regulation might be struck down as "void for vagueness."
What I hear 33girl saying is that GLO policies about alcohol should follow that principle and be specific enough that just by reading them and without explanation or interpretation, a member can tell what is prohibited and what isn't. For my money, that's in everyone's best interests -- the members and the GLO.
