I agree with A, C, and F. The rigid nature of rules-based approaches can be a real problem, and the need for interpretation and judgment just opens the door to inconsistency.

A, C, and F seem like the biggest issues to me. Rules-based approaches can get bogged down in technicalities and end up being more about compliance than actual ethics.
