In business, we are taught to set goals based on the SMART principal.
SMART - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time Based Results.
When thinking about these codes, how about putting them to this test?

Specific - be clear on what you are asking the breeder/member to comply?
Measurable - Can the results be measured? Is it specific enough to determine
compliance without much subjectivity?
Achievable --- are they achievable requirements? Do they include enough to
be meaningful but also ---
Realistic ---Are they realistic? Are they realistic enough to be achievable?
Time Based/Bound --- in business this means results accomplished which are
time bound (on a deadline), but in this case, I see this as setting a
requirement of annual signatures, and possibly time limits and limits of
restitution for violating the code.
