You summed it up quite well despite your TL;DR version not being deserving of its name. I only want to add something to the point I left in the quote. The approach of doing a few key moderations is going to work because the majority of users adapts to the level of discourse that is on display.

I know that the word count is massive, but I tend to approach such things by addressing possibly arising questions right away, so it's bound to happen that people who consider something self-explanatory have to read something that is redundant for them. Examples of such concerns are freedom of speech and worries about getting moderated for being wrong.

Yeah it still ended up being long, but I did a word count on mine and yours and I'm not kidding I reduced it by 61% by my calculations. Figured people would be more likely to at least try to read it when reduced and put in a bulleted form. I feel like the bits on being moderated for being wrong and freedom of speech are really only useful to people who will be disingenuous in any argument they make and aren't worth accounting for the opinions of anyway.
