From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Your post body could've been a comment as well since it answers your header. Now everyone who answers kind of has to respond to your header and body
I agree with you. Guidelines are very good and appreciated but they shouldn't be enforced.
A screenshot shouldn't be optional.
That dark theme screenshot is bad and light theme is good is nuts because if theme is important you provide a 50/50 screenshot showing off the themes.
uh...sorry, wasn't my intention to make the post come out that way.
No worries
Counterpoint: I prefer it the way you've done it.
Although I do not like a title of a statement with a question mark glued on. This is a pet peeve of mine. You could ask "is flatpak's icon style guide too strict?", though Betteridge's law of headlines says the answer is no.
