Yeah, it's specific to Ravenloft/Curse of Strahd. Then again, I've seen stuff in these posts that would never come up in other games, because of genre differences....

I think the best ones are the ones that seem like sensible restrictions, but out of context to leave you wondering how the restriction became necessary. The gaming equivalent of "Only iron shirt while not being worn."
