I think the others have already covered the justifications pretty well and I agree with them.
PH is not TTT. For the most part, that's a great thing and something I really enjoyed about the server when I used to admin on it. The players are almost always more friendly, more calm, and more young. When someone is being disrespectful or rude, that's more the exception, not the norm like we see on TTT. The culture on PH has been for at least several years one that values respect and treating players in a much kinder way than TTT. Again, a good thing.
You also made a daycare analogy. I'm not sure exactly why. If it is, then it is. If the server attracts a much younger player base than TTT, for example, then the staff SHOULD adjust their staffing methods accordingly. That just makes sense and is reflective of a good staff team and good staff guidelines. If a server has 10 children under the age of 14 on it, then the staff should gag the one person that is graphically describing a sexual encounter, for example. They should similarly gag someone picking on a child or female who has a higher-pitched voice. If that makes it a daycare, then so be it - embrace the idea and accept the values that it might encourage and teach.
Telling someone to "shut up" is, of course, disrespectful and rude. And if PH doesn't want a server with the rampant disrespect common on other servers, like TTT, then all the more power to them. The rule should definitely be left alone.
