Quoted from o-din:So do these nerds actually add tilt warnings to games that by default setting did not have them?
No, not as a “rule”
And you obviously don’t know how much fun us “nerds” have.
But that’s ok.
Comp. pinball isn’t all about rules, and they rarely really come into play during the course of most tournaments, and to most players in that tournament.
But when they are needed, they are needed, correct?
So it is nice to have a gold standard of rules, and thankfully the IFPA has provided that.
So the answer to the OPs question is obvious, and clear.
And having rules doesn’t kill the fun of competition.
