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.
