I think that what’s happened is that my brain took “(And if you object that there’s no rule about the size of the quotes, I’ll downvote you again)” to be equivalent to “(Yes, I know that there’s no rule about the size of the quotes, but still)” with the mock threat added for stylistic/dry humour effect (possibly as a result of me having stuff like this in the past).
