I mean, it's pretty easy. You just like, tolerate it.
I'm sure there are contexts where strict rules are important, but in my experience most of the time fussy commit message rules are put in place it's because someone has reimagined themselves as the gordon ramsey of code and the people rolling their eyes don't want to get entrenched in a political battle where they're against "professionalism", so they just deal with it, or someone with mild OCD is inflicting it on everyone else. (I know I'm being harsh and I'm writing this tongue in cheek, I don't really think that badly of people that are super fussy about these things, but I've rarely seen any actual utility come from strict commit rules).
