If you could add or remove one "good manners" rule, what would it be?

Once you choose, that rule would start (or stop) being an expected societal norm automatically and would become embedded in culture (or fade into obscurity).

It could be a big crazy change like making food fights be a normal or even polite thing, like if the food is good then you are supposed to ask for more and then throw it and start a food fight, and that's a big compliment for the chef.

Or it could just be something you personally find more convenient, like making is so that nobody is expected to remember people's names anymore, and people will tell you their name again whenever they talk to you so that you don't have to remember it.

Handshakes.

First of all it has a fairly cringe history and I am not a fan of how serious (-ly stupid) people are about handshake etiquette. Furthermore, if we are just going to consider the benefit of stopping the practice then consider how it would improve public health to not transfer diseases so readily between strangers through casual skin-contact with the part of your body that is most likely to contact your own mouth, nose and eyes later.

I would get rid of the one where you have to use a specific fork for dessert.
