it was already argued before a judge
she told me about the case law and i mirrored them.

answer my question please
according to rule 8 the
only reason that hotlinking should be avoided is because of bandwidth issues.
copyright infringement concerns do not show up in the rule.
does the rule need to be re written?
or were the details describing copyright infringement when hot linking omitted from rule because the authors already knew about the legal standing of hot linking?

8. Hotlinking
Try to avoid putting in links to images directly from someone else's website. This can add a lot to their bandwidth, and then the host has to pay for it. In other words, if you see an image you like on an astronomy site, put in a link to that site, but don't use the [IMG] tags so the image loads into your post from their site directly. If you really want an image in your post, put it in a public site someplace and link to it from there. One exception would be from sites like NASA or universities, where bandwidth is not such an issue. If you own the image, then you can upload it to the board yourself.
