you want me to be specific and unambiguous?  damn.  that's no fun...

but just to appease your absurdly unreasonable demand that I be clear:

      Variable-width fonts are only permitted for free-running
      prose in paragraphs.

or

      Color may be used for visual emphasis but must not be
      essential to understanding (to avoid detriment for the
      color-blind).
