Unfortunately that's just the way the cookie crumbles. I think the guidlines should be left as they are. :)
I tend not to disagree much with the BBFC, because to get the films "down" to the rating below it means cutting out sections of the film, which could ruin the whole experience (and it annoys me when ITV, BBC do it for movies as well!)
