Yep! The modern version of the win by paradox rule came into being after a "true" paradox was created via retroactive action (i.e. a time travel paradox) so we said, "neat, anyone who does that should win!" But the first version of the rule didn't have that protection, which led to a rash of "those kind of shenanigans" in CFJs. -G.
