Is this a reference to "Whose Line is it Anyway?"?  I don't recall any
game in it featuring lying down, but I haven't seen any episode of it
since 1994, so I might be out of date.  (I don't have a TV.)

Ah, Wikipedia claims that the game "Stand, Sit, Bend" was used in both
versions, and had a variant "Stand, Sit, Lie".

Careful here.  What if an entity changes from one type to another where
both types have the same switch?  That is, it has changed between subtypes
where a switch is tied to a common supertype.

No, that would be awful!  Loses the point of switches being typed.

I don't think it's so trivial.  But you're welcome to go through the
whole ruleset and replace "register" with "become a player" and so on.
I won't object to the terms not being defined when they're no longer
used in the ruleset.
