Agreed, something simple is required. I suggest expanding that just a little...

"Rules are a non-SQL Standard feature and where possible we recommend
that you write your applications using triggers, views and functions
instead. Although not likely to be fully deprecated soon, the use of
rules is now actively discouraged."
