On the subject of offical policies, it has been my experience from reading BSA national Charter, Policy and policy letters that they are careful to use the words Shall meaning a requirement without exception, and the word may, should, recommended, etc meaning it's your call. We have very few "real" requirements in this program. Most concern safety and liability. Things are very open ended; and intentionally so. That way each sponsor can mold the program to its own particular needs. Have a merry Christmas and keep the principles of scouting close; the rest will fall in place.
