Well, no.  But there's a certain amount of mistaking one's personal 
experiences for universals, and I think it might be safely said that "once 
you find a game that perfectly matches your desired play style, you won't 
want to change" is the general case for that.

I don't know that there's anything wrong with strong social rules provided 
they either eliminate behavior your group couldn't otherwise overcome, or 
they require (or at least get out of the way of) the behavior you wanted 
anyway.  Or both.

But that's sort of a "people who like things like this will like this" 
kind of statement at that point.
