This is already the rule in-fact. We don't need to codify it with something that can be lawyered and laboriously pointed to at every turn.

Happens all the time. Wes doesn't even like the things that some of his faction's GMs do but Yamatai deals with it. Factions are setting elements. FMs have a right to protect their creations to a certain extent so that they may grow into organic things that everyone uses.

I vehemently disagree with the bolded part.
Kyle said:Then what's the point of creating cultures, regulations or policies for a faction if a GM isn't going to follow them? We may as well just throw out all of Yamatai's, Nepleslia, Gartagens, etc.... policies, as they obviously mean nothing.
I'm sorry, but telling a good story does not mean you misrepresent or violate the canon of a faction.
