Part of being human is having the ability to admit that you are wrong. You have dug yourself into a hole, so stop embarrassing yourself with your pathetic attempts at trying to get out because you won't. This is quite similar to how a wounded animal growls at any approaching animal, as a psychological weapon of defense, in order to make the approaching animal believe that it is dangerous to approach the wounded animal, even though it probably is not, depending on the animal which is approaching. You are also lying to yourself because you are trying to intimidate me into believing that you have disproven me, even though you have not. Also, you said that you have disproven me? Could you tell me when you allegedly did that because I don't recall that happening?

On a simple level, no, I don't believe you need to read the Federation Charter, but the charter would probably reveal what the centralised beliefs of the people of the Federation are, which could provide a valuable insight to the particular Federation citizen/s that you have come across. To answer your question, I would say that it depends. It is well known (Probably in the Federation Cultural Database) that the Ferengi frequently conform to these Rules of Acquisition.
