Thanks for this explanation, this clarifies it a bit for me. I still don't quite see why this would be considered a "product recommendation", as you state in your comment below the original question, but I see how this misunderstanding of the FAQ was caused: In the environment I work in, it is the sysadmins who choose and install the compilers that the system's users then use to compile their HPC jobs.

Ah, I see. Well, I wouldn't mind even if there was a penalty for rejected edits, I just like to know that sort of stuff when working on community-driven sites :-)
