I think it could be even stricter, like
When there are shared and static libraries, applications should link
against shared libraries except for exceptionnal circumstances, like
dynamically linked applications being non-functionnal. 


I am perfectly happy with this draft. I will try to work on a paragraph 
trying to explain the case of numerical libs/portability and so on to
provide guidance on this kind of 'exceptionnal circumstances'.
