Not true many reviewers review on the latest stable, it says nowhere

Review is about guidelines and nowhere in the guideline does it even say
that the fucntionality of the package should be tested. When I suggested
that it be added I got back a knee jerk reaction to participate in
reviews myself.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ReviewGuidelines::
- SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as
described. A package should not segfault instead of running, for
example.
I suggested that it the "SHOULD" be changed to "MUST". A package that
doesnt even start shouldnt be getting past reviews.
For simple applications, sure, but for libs, modules and servers? And for
example when the package consist in multiple commands should them all be
tested?
Exactly, there are very good reasons why this is a SHOULD and not a MUST. I'm
sure almost every reviewer will give a program a test run in the simple program
case / scenarion. Why must everything by regulated with rules, procedures and
more rules? Why can't we just TRUST each other, I'm getting very tired, sick
even, of this!
