When you introduce any sort of restrictions, you can end up pushing out people who are very successful at putting out good code. But I don't think complaining about "simplistic" is the problem here. Simplistic rules are easy to follow. Making the rules more complex makes them harder to follow, and doesn't strike me as being less likely to have problems with people who aren't interested in following those type of rules at all.
