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. -Goethe
