what rules?Recent rules mean that a board should only be populated with components of the same manufacture.Usually, other makes will fit; and, technically should work.
However, different manufacturers comply with EN60439-3 (annex ZA) in different ways, making it difficult for YOU to prove compliance, unless you stay with the same maker.
As an added point, more aesthetic than anything else: It looks better, in my opinion.
