Power 1.5, actually, but I grant that. I'm not saying that I wouldn't support upmutating R649, just that Power 3 seems unnecessary. It only takes Power 2 to award a win (apart from win by proposal, of course), and I have no problem with a Power-2 win having Power-3 rewards, as long as the Power-2 entity can't define the nature of those rewards. Take registration as an analogy. Registration has a Power-3 benefit (the ability to vote on democratic proposals), but that doesn't mean that registration needs to be tightly regulated at power 3 as well. -root
