Change the Power of rule 1482 to 4.

because
a Power=3 rule can take precedence over R1482 to stipulate a different
precedence-determining rule. By its nature, R1482 should have the
highest Power of all rules.]

I support this, partly because it makes sense and partly for the
marvyness of having a useful rule of power 4.
But as a thought, ought R101 also have maximum extant power? Should
this proposal pass, power-based rule conflict resolution would take
precedence over obeying the rules!
Oh wait -- R101 no longer says that we must obey the rules! Never
mind....
