I don't understand why this rule is in place, if not only to hide bad staff decisions.

A transparent community is always the best. Not authoritative ones. If you think that leads to anarchy, you are dead wrong.

From past experience both as a user and as a staff member on this site, allowing discussions about decisions made by staff members only leads to trouble...

if you do not force people to agree to NEW rules, you can't tell we agreed to them...

What Paul M posted up is entirely accurate - If the welcoming rules stipulate that vB.org reserves the right to modify the rules, then it is your responsibility as a user to monitor and review the rules to ensure that you are following them...
