Arguments: You're missing the second part - "existing solely because
its backing document defines its existence".  That's the reason assets
can't have multiple backing documents: an asset can't exist 'solely
because of' each of two different things.  But in general,
rule-defined assets would probably continue to exist (at least in some
form) even if Rule 2166 were repealed and left "asset" undefined;
thus, Rule 2166 doesn't satisfy the condition.
