Nobanana covered the basic thing right there, Composts are cheap.

Altough being a very lazy person I can agree with the suggestion since even though compost is cheap material wise and in fact time wise. it is still a pain to make, or remake. You also you lose whatever plants you had planted

Now.

An Observer wrote: But it isn't only against raiders that they are treated unfairly- no no. Farmers are also this community's most prolific and common type of Custom Builder, but recieve none of the protections. That's right, by official word of mod, destroying elaborate builds that can take upwards of ten minutes is perfectly fine- so long as that custom building is used to farm. Quite an eyebrow-raising exception, but that isn't the main point here.

This wasn't your mainpoint, But it is a Point you have made nonetheless

So to explain that which you quoted, Compost placed on the ground as a farm is not thought of as a custom structure, hence why foraging it is not against the rules.

If you made a statue or Mansion or something of the sort it would be a handmade structure and therefore covered by the rules.

But unless you can make a Good Point as to Compost on the ground being a handbuilt structure I'm afraid it will not be against any rules to forage it, or burn it.
