R101 is worded (IMO) such that the change would not be blocked, but 
non-first-class persons would be able to CFJ anyway, making the rule 
broken.  A broken rule is worse than a suboptimal rule.  Plus, I support 
partnerships' rights. :) If partnerships are "nerfed" to uselessness, then 
nobody will make them.

There ought to be advantages to being members of partnerships, but not so 
numerous that you would make a silent partnership for yourself.  Hence why 
I oppose 5370 and 5371.  They both patch little loopholes that make 
partnerships worthwhile.  

But I seem to be in the minority with this opinion... I suppose you could 
argue that the only advantages partnerships ought to have are those that 
occur only when the members are in agreement, such as being able to more 
efficiently spend VCs.  Hmm...
