I think a lot of the time with these things is not really about filtering every single offending project but stablishing a legal precedent to remove a project the moment it is found to be violating the rules.

Yeah, saying outright that you can't gives them the ability to remove a problematic project without issue. Otherwise, GiganticProject, that prints "hello world" and is used by Microsoft, which is a million lines of code with 100,000 lines committed every day can be removed without having to deal with Microsoft's lawyers.
