I just think that the way it's phrased in the rules makes it sound like it's okay to have themes of suicide or suicidal intent in you're game as long as you're not glorifying it. Like, it's fine if you portray it as a a bad thing and make it clear you shouldn't kill yourself and that's really bad actually. But if just having suicide as a concept in the game can get it pulled and it's recommended you don't touch it, when you also have to pay to be judged, I think that should be made more clear

I think the part you're missing here is that treatment of the subject is often mishandled, and while one person might not see it as glorifying, another might.  The rule is as it stands, and the recommendation is less commentary on the rule than it is how often people run afoul to it on accident.
