But rule 101 doesn't prevent players doing anything. Rule 101 is entirely
concerned with allowing players to do things (as its title suggests). I
still think you're confusing "regulated" and "secured". And securedness
has a power threshold for this reason. Again, if you want to persist with
this argument, please explain what effect regulating an action has other
than on rule 101, with a citation from the ruleset. If you think it ought
to have more of an affect than this, you always have the option of
proposing a change in the rules to fix any bugs you percieve...

Yes it does.  That's just nonsense.  It's like saying "R101 prevents players
from changing regulated things at will.  But R478 allows players to perform 
actions by announcement, therefore players can change any regulated things by
announcement".  Substitute R2169 for R478 and "by equity judgement" with
"by announcement" and you have your argument, which is equivalent nonsense.
