So then, why not use a more modern CoC? I looked at that too, but found the so-called "modern" CoCs to be vapid. They are trendy feel-good statements that do not really get to the heart of the matter in the way the the ancient Rule does... One final reason for publishing the current CoC is as a preemptive move, to prevent some future customer from imposing on us one of those modern CoCs that I so dislike.

It took me several days and countless hours reading enraged tweets to figure this out, but in the end, the solution was as simple as renaming the offensive "Code of Conduct" to "Code of Ethics", thus avoiding the name-of-special-significance, then drop in a pre-packaged CoC in place of the one that became the CoE, and all is well. Took less than 5 minutes once I figured out what to do. Who know it was that easy?
