R2161 doesn't explicitly address the capacity to assign ID numbers, except
for invalidating certain purported assignments based on deficiencies
of the number to be assigned.  This is a flaw in the rule.  Either we
can't assign any ID numbers at the moment, or game custom will dictate
the we can when (and probably only when) obliged to.
