Pretty much. I feel the devs need to pay more attention to this and release an official statement about it once and for all to avoid any misunderstandings and gray areas.

There is no need for any statement. They have been clear about what is and is not acceptable (read the ToS). The only reason you perceive a "gray area" is because the devs have been fairly hands off, allowing people to have their fun if they can do it reasonably and without causing problems for others.

To use a real world argument, this is like going 10-20 over the speed limit or street racing. You shouldn't be doing those things, but basically cops won't care that you do until there's a problem. At the same time, you shouldn't be going out of your way to tell or show everyone you're doing those things. (eg revving your engine and/or trying to street race in a place other people are driving)

Same deal here. Nobody cares if you ERP, even for money, as long as you keep it quiet and don't wave a red flag for drawing the attention of GMs. But if you get caught doing it because someone reported you/you did something inappropriate without consent, it's on you.
