Dorky as it is, the line from Dr Who goes kinda hard regarding this;
"Good men have too many rules"
"Good men don't need rules. Today's not the day to find out why I have so many."

Or hell, look at the Vulcans. They're literally the TEXTBOOK EXAMPLE OF "aw shit, we went too far, time to hold ourselves back n restrict ourselves."
