I have never seen Crocker's Rules in action, but it has always seemed to me that declaring that other people are allowed to optimize their messages for information, not for being nice to you, gives carte blanche for them to optimise their messages for being nasty to you, not for information.
Crocker's Rule does allow other to be nasty to you. And thus you learn something about those particular people. For example, it's probably a bad idea to listen to their other advice for you even if you haven't invoked Crocker's Rule in that context.
