Rules for true Lexigramming!

QUESTION:
Are there Lexigram rules and what are they?

ANSWER:
THE BASIC RULES FOR LEXIGRAMMING AND ANAGRAMMING

1. Use any and all letters from the source to create/find words when Lexigramming.

Add none, remove none.

2. When Anagramming, use all the letters from the source by rearranging only to find/create words, with no letters left over.

Add none, remove none.

3. Do not add or remove any letters from the name or phrase etcetera before starting to Lexigram or Anagram it. If you do remove any letters, be they consonants or vowels, your resulting Lexigram or Anagram will not be based on the Name etcetera you chose to divinate.

THE FOLLOWING IS A POPULAR SET OF LEXIGRAMMING RULES WHICH ARE FOR THE MOST PART NOT TRUE.
LINKS DISPELLING THESE ARBITRARY AND ILLOGICAL RULES ARE POSTED HERE AFTER MY COMMENTS ON EACH RULE.

1. "If you lexigram a person's name and it contains the word liar or the phrase he lies or she lies or any other such negative word, such as thief or steal and you do not have the letters N, O or T to cancel the negative meaning - he/she not a liar - then that person has a problem and needs to be made aware of it, so that they can learn to control their personal character flaw. If on the other hand the negative word can be cancelled by the letters N, O or T, then the person or word being lexigramed will have been accused of whatever the negative word implies, but is not guilty. The person or word is only guilty if the the word YES appears without the cancel power of the word NO or NOT".

NOT TRUE!

2. Each letter in the new word must come from the original word or name. You can use each original letter more than once for forming different words, but not in the same word, if the original word only contains that letter once. If the original word only contains one S you cannot lexigram a new word containing 2 letters S.

WHILE BADLY WORDED THAT IS TRUE.
ADDITIONALLY WHEN LEXIGRAMMING A FULL NAME OR PHRASE, EACH LETTER IN THE FREQUENCY FOUND CAN BE USED TO CREATE YOUR WORDS. If the name or phrase has for example in its entirety, multiples of ANY LETTER, those letters in multiple can appear in ANY SINGLE WORD!

3. A word that contains all 5 vowels - a, e, i, o, u - cannot be lexigramed. It is best when at most 4 vowels are present, 3 or less vowels are better.

RULE #3 IS AS UNTRUE AND AS ILLOGICAL AS RULE #4 AND RIDICULOUS UNTRUE STATEMENT #5!
FOR EXAMPLE OF LEXIGRAMS FROM NAMES HAVING ALL THE VOWELS;

4. "The original word, name or phrase may not contain more than 15 different and separate letters. It is OK for the same letter to occur more than once, then it will be only counted once - noon equals only 2 letters as both the N and the O occur twice" .

THAT IS UTTERLY RIDICULOUS AND UNTRUE!
YOU HAVE THE LETTERS IN THE AMOUNTS THEY APPEAR!
USE THEM!
DELETE NONE!

THE ENTIRE ALPHABET IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE!

5. The reason for the previous two rules is that with a word or phrase containing all the vowels or more than 15 letters just about any word in the dictionary could be created and the Lexigram would not reveal anything valuable.

THAT IS UTTERLY UNTRUE!
