No they shouldn't. All it would do is serve as a template on how to game the system.

The system is already being gamed lol. Giving users exact values wouldn't hurt. People who game the system already know the values. If they don't, they're easily findable.
Which is worse:
New account puts a repost on a popular no-karma limit subreddit for a few hundred karma and then spams their T-Shirts a month later across the site, only to get an instant ban from every sub they posted on. This circumvents both karma and account age requirements.
New account keeps getting their posts removed and they are confused as to why everything they say doesn't show up

Both are already happening. Making the rules public would dramatically increase the latter while the former would still be almost instantly banned and can be reported to reddit. The new user experience is god awful here.
