That's a reasonable common interpretation, I agree.  And your argument is
plausible.  But it's exactly *not* how we interpreted recent transactions.

To be clear, I would look back at those recent precedents (I don't offhand
remember which cases or payments) to find the reasons for those judgements
before coming to a conclusion on this one.  Both can't be right.

Also:  didn't we have a long discussion on the definition of "spend"
and "paid" and so forth that resulted in a proposal?  I thought we clarified 
some of those definitions did it never actually get proposed/distributed?
