High-level Rules that span many guidelines

The Core Guidelines advises e.g. using ranged for instead of for, for instead of while, and specialized ranged algorithms instead of either.

It also advises to stagger template definitions, avoid templates unless necessary, etc.

These and others are part of what I call the Rule of Minimum Power:

"Use the least amount of language power that gets the task done."

Under this specific strategic guideline fall a number of the concrete checkable guidelines. Then programmers seeing e.g.:

file.cpp(475): Rule of Minimum Power: use ranged for instead of explicit for loop.

will immediately understand the high-level motivation.
