This is clearly both botanical and political. And if a mod is posting it, it would fit within the spirit of the rule intended.

"mods are always right" is an insane take

Mods know what their rules mean is a pretty basic take.

If mods know what their rules mean, they could describe them more clearly so it doesn’t become a philosophical debate.

For example, “Zero politics allowed”, or “No politics without science as the main theme”.
