Because we want to teach admins to use the audit system to...audit. Its really 
awkward to tell them that you can audit almost everything, but if you need to 
do this one other thing, you need to change your policy to do it.

Also, the audit system records changes to itself so that you can see when that 
rule disappeared from the config. Doing it in policy, all you get a policy 
loaded message which doesn't tell you what in the policy changed.
