We miss things, but you may just be misinterpreting what “obligatory” means.
There’s a difference between a pony in a pic being front a center and actually relevant to the pic vs a picture with a random pony in the bg or random elements shopped on.
They may also get kept if there’s at least a joke or something being made by comparing or whatever, but not just for having something shopped in with no further meaning.
Also, rule #3 doesn’t apply to hand-drawn things if they’re of at least not-shitty quality.
This is prob way wordier than it needed to be.
