They want consistency across all of Wikia, and anything modifying that consistency, even if in a small way, violates their policies. For example, both our collapsible header, and policy notification pop up violate this policy. So yes, it did directly violate Wikia's policies. It's the actual purpose of the policies that would be in question.
