You are forgetting rule number one:

Your assignor is ALWAYS right.....
Never say never, never say always.

To quote J. Dallas Shirley: "Never say never, and never say always." When the assigner is wrong the assigner is wrong. That is the beauty of ethics. If my superior told me to use a design that went against good engineering practice I am ethically bound to ignore is instructions. When an assigner tells me to ignore the rules and casebook plays, I am ethically bound to ignore him, and if he does not like it, I will tell him to take it up with the appropriate rules committee.
