Sonic 3 and Knuckles "Glitchless" speedruns (werster rules)

These are the rules I'm using for "Glitchless" runs of S3K. I put glitchless in quotation marks because glitchless is impossible to define in this game, there's just way too much borderline crap. So a overrule ruleset that suits exactly what everyone wants or thinks is right on impossible to make. Instead, I'm just making my own, only for me. As such, I'm not constrained by what actually makes sense, and am instead just banning everything I want. Which is, as it turns out, basically everything. Whether I think they are glitches or not.

There's 2 criteria for the reasoning:
1) The reason I'm doing these runs is I'm tiring of how broken the game is, and wanna get more gameplay out of the levels. So basically banning everything means I do more things different then the glitched levels, which is what I want.
2) I think about what people would want to see from a "glitchless" run, and I think they don't wanna see borderline shit. They wanna see nothing but what they think is 'intended'. So it makes sense.

Onto the banlist:

Going through any objects or solidarity in any way
Zips
Level wrap
Screen wrap
Slope glitch
Wheel glitch
Passing above any off screen ceiling (e.g. Hydrocity, Ice Cap 2, etc) [For clarity, going above the stage's camera is ok, but NOT a ceiling, so going above something by going off screen is what is banned.]
Taking control of the character during what should be an automated sequence (e.g. between Marble Garden Boss Cycles with Tails)
Starting or finishing an automated object's sequence at the wrong point (e.g. elevator skip in LB1, or instant bottom tube in LB1)
Jumping in mid-air (e.g. at the start of Mushroom Hill 2)
Fighting a boss that isn't the intentional one for your character (i.e. doing Sonic's boss in IC1/LB2 with Knuckles)
Fighting a boss without triggering its load sequence (e.g. defeating the first LB2 boss without actually loading the Ball Shooter.)
Skipping an acts boss (e.g. flying over Icecap 1s boss)
Taking damage in the gravity chamber in Death Egg
Going through the tubes in Hydrocity 2 from above (specific mention cause its hard to specifically word otherwise)
Turning Super/Hyper while on the snowboard in Ice Cap 1
Using Sonic + Tails (i.e. use Sonic alone for Sonic runs)
Entering a bonus stage

Only matters for ILs:
Starting Act 2 from the end of Act 1 (i.e. must always start from level select)
Must use S3K for all stages, EXCEPT Launch Base 2 must use Sonic 3 alone for Sonic or Tails (This is purely cause I like Big Arm, has nothing to do with glitches)
Dying (i.e. no check abuse, runs must be continuous.)

Only matters for Full game:
Skipping a cutscene via resetting the game or otherwise (i.e. dying during a time bonus countdown)
The 'Rings Glitch' in special stages, where blue spheres can be turned into rings without fully surrounding them

(There might be some other stuff I've forgotten. Basically, if you think something might be banned, it is)

The non banlist:

Any visual of audio glitch that has no impact on the gameplay (For example, an enemy having "glitchy" visuals from loading too fast)
