This seems to be recursive. The means of definition that it refers to
makes reference to definitions in the B Nomic ruleset, but it's trying
to use that to say how B Nomic rules are to be interpreted. I suggest:
In the remainder of the B Nomic ruleset, by default, no external
interpretational conventions apply.

There's a problem with using capitalisation for differentiation, which
is that the difference is invisible at the start of a sentence.

These sentences are out of sequence. The second sentence is meant to
qualify the third, not the first. Swap the second and third sentences.

How about "... thereby becomes a party ...", rather than "... is assumed
to agree ...".

Parse error.

Might want to shorten that, to let B Nomic vote reliably.
