    That is absolutely deviating from the norms, to the point of insanity

      You’re reaching with that word. If I slipped, fell, and cracked my head open you wouldn’t say I deviated from the norms of standing.

        Ofcourse I am, that is my point, norms are subjective regarding your example it is a technicallity but you could absolutely argue that a guy slipping and falling is deviating from the norms of standing.
