Please yourself. Breaking rules is showing contempt for rules and thats flouting rules according to the dictionary. I think most people will go with the dictionary, not your corrections

"Contempt: 1. the feeling with which a person regards anything considered mean, vile, or worthless; disdain; scorn."

I am the only person who knows whether I feel that rules are "mean, vile or worthless". I am the only person who knows whether I view them with "disdain" or "scorn". I'm telling you that I don't. Your wilful insistence on applying inaccurate and misleading terminology to describe my views is ignorant and rude.

You insist on painting those with whom you disagree in the most contemptuous light possible. If you're confident in your opinions, why not debate them reasonably without resorting to attempts to slander and distort the opinions of others? It would make for a much nicer conversation :)
