Way too strict for me, but whatever you like.  There is just about
nothing in life that you can make a 100 percent rule for, other than
perhaps death and taxes.  Personally, I would reserve the right to
overrule what, to my experienced brain, looked like a head-on car
crash at more than 100 kph.  If someone else wants to take that hit
based on some "philosophy of pureness in trading systems", well, that
is their privilege.  I however, will retain the "right" to say I am a
systematic trader when my compliance with the system is clearly the
vast majority of calls.  But 100 percent of anything I often find to
be a bit much.
