Comment:

 Stickies are a very basic construct: throw these posts at the top of the
 loop on the homepage. The only way to exclude posts is via `post__not_in`.
 The sticky query would be way too complicated (and would have to be
 completely re-thought) if it had to follow all of the rules of the query
 instance that contains it.
