The issue is not "arbitrary".
For instance.....if you have a policy that all "category X" data isdestroyed 
after 6 months, and you get sued and have to provide all dataof category X for 
the past year....you cannot say "Oh crap, I've got allthis data of category X 
that's older than 6 months, I'd better destroyit."
If you have it, you cannot destroy it, when you get sued.....you'dbetter be 
destroying it, as a matter of practice, as soon as the policystates it can be 
destroyed.
If you haven't got documented precidence of strictly adhering to yourpublished 
policy, then you can't use the policy as justification for thedata you just 
destroyed.
