The point is it's a list that game owners can choose from. They probably wouldn't ban all of these separatly or they would just say no surender. But they might want one or a couple not allowed but the others to be allowed.

All four of those forms of surrendering are completely different uses of the surrender option.

9b. Gifting a planet for the primary purpose of keeping an another player alive.

(I think this is significantly differant from 9.)

I wonder if this list might be simpler if the things the game allowed you to ban were left out? or perhaps in a separate list. I mean if the host intentionally left certain options on they really can't be considered gamey for that game.
