Whatever the case is this rule should be revamped because: 1) it doesn't verbosely explain what can be considered bumping, 2) in practice it isn't widely enforced, 3) it theory it doesn't have levels of maliciousness, e.g a useful update to a thread is as useless/malicious as a mere bump.
I have no idea why it was dropped but the 14 days bumping delay rule was perfect.

There are multiple articles and threads asking the same question as OP did. You will find answers from moderators from different sites, different kind of forums and numbers of active members. Here's a quick google search on regards to posting on dead threads.
