Rules - allow the FULL server rules to be viewed in-game with Dialogs

Suggestion
This is an idea I had in the past, but wasn't sure if practical. Given the addition of changelogs in RPG, I do think it might be.
I think it would be nice if you could view the FULL server rules without having to use the website. For Java players this isn't as important, but I actually see Bedrock as a strong argument for this. If you want to view the rules as a Bedrock player, you have to type the link in a browser, as you can't click links on Bedrock. This means that Bedrock players are less likely to read the rules to begin with.
Using dialogs, I actually think that reading the rules in-game could be a comparable experience to reading them in a browser, or at least close enough to it. (I didn't realize that you could have scroll-able dialogs until I saw them on here)
Some concerns I do have.
1. That viewing the rules in-game would be a compromised experience. With Dialogs, I think it could be a fairly close experience to reading the rules on the forums.
2. That maintaining 2 sets of rules could lead to discrepancies between them, which would not be good. One option would be to remove the rules from the forums, and ONLY have the rules viewable in-game. An issue with this is that then some kind of support for clients too old to support Dialogs (including 1.8.9, for SG/Challengers) would be required, and viewing the rules then might be a compromised experience (I don't remember if you can scroll through chat in 1.8.9)
