The (live)-bylaws keep everyone in check for everyone’s benefit. If one gets away with something it can then be used as a precedent for others who also want the same. A little encroachment usually slips by but when someone says something, or it’s obvious you are stretching the friendship in others eyes they do need to say something. Paper wars are the lesser way to go about it, so maybe invite someone over to walk through exactly what their concerns are. Doing so may help you to save a little more of what you’ve got there thus far.
