Which part did you feel needed simplifying? "Sudo room is not intended to be used for habitation or domestic purposes" or "No-one is allowed to sleep in sudo room at any time"?

I think the idea was that "not intended for habitation" was too abstract and hard to enforce, and that a simple "no sleeping" rule would better empower members to stand up against problematic individuals.

Having people sleep in the space (and becoming know as a place where people *can* spend the night) has been a big problem at Noisebridge and many other hackerspaces. A straightforward "no sleeping" rule may be overly simplistic, but it still takes a real person to make a judgement call on whether or not to enforce the rule depending on the situation.
