I’m not, at least for the present. Agora cannot receive cards, and in any case, carding Agora has no ludic effect, platonic OR pragmatic.

It should, for consistency if for no other reason. It’s also possible that that “can” is meaningfully different from “CAN” in this context. Thanks. I believe that MAYs are not required here, as the actions defined here are not otherwise made illegal in any way. They’re Regulated, which means it is only possible to do them as described, but they’re not obviously in contravention of a SHALL NOT or similar anywhere. MAY appears to be useful for carving out exceptions to blanket illegality, not for ensuring that an action that’s otherwise not defined as being either illegal or as legal will be legal. CANs are sufficient for that, in most cases, by my read of Mother, May I? and related precedent. -o
