These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
In games where combat uses the bumpers a lot I bind the back buttons to that. For the rest of the games it depends on the what I find annoying to do repeatedly and end up mapping that to a back paddle.
For example on Breath of the Wild the back paddle was run which allowed me to run with one hand.
I'm trying that on FO4 right now. Instead of clicking in left stick, I mapped it to R4. Seems more natural than holding down the click on stick that you're also using to move directionally.
