<div dir="ltr">There is an enforcement component to the group policy that allows you to use the current APIs and it's the reason that group policy is integrated into the neutron project. If someone uses the current APIs, the group policy plugin will make sure they don't violate any policy constraints before passing the request into the regular core/service plugins.</div>

Policy decision points can be decentralized from the system under scrutiny, we don't need to have one giant monolithic system that does everything; it's an architectural decision that would make difficult to achieve composability and all the other good -ilities of software systems.</div>
