Rule 1 is pretty easy to follow - everyone understands that.

Rules 2-4 are a balance. It's better (defensive driving) to not assume that other people 1) know all the rules, or 2) have the same interpretation of "which of us was first" that you do, or 3) are using their turn signals appropriately.

An early and highly visible wave ceding the right of way is safer and can even end up faster than the start/stop hiccup of both people assuming they had the ROW.

But people who stop in the middle of the road for no reason other than to let someone turn into traffic 10 seconds before there would have been an opening anyway.... get outta here.

You don’t have to get 100% to pass the test 🤷

That doesnt mean you stop learning after the test, thats only the beginning.

While I do agree, the word "should" is doing some heavy lifting in that statement.

It would be an interesting Church Street poll question!
