Is It a Good Idea to Write Down the Principles?

A lot of times i think that the culture contains the principles, but they're not written down. And i think it's really helpful to have em written down, especially for newcomers. It may be like, at some point principles are in conflict, or seem to be in conflict and, yes, yes. The only time i've ever seen it done was in pison. I would say, cotland has those principles somewhere, but it's not, you know, i inferred them by the way that the language was designed.
