Within pretty strong limits, yes.
But you're right, it is fair to question if those limits imposed are actually good.
They definitely are complex enough, to allow different interpretations. Most times a team will have an Idea that maybe skirts the rules. They will believe they are within legal limits, and if the Idea is actually good and improves things for them, all the other teams will protest.
Sometimes the new Idea is then instantly clarified to be illegal.
Sometimes it is deemed legal, but the rules are changed such as it becomes illegal the next season.
and Rarely it's just legal, and everyone else copies it and has the same stuff 2-3 Months later.
