Also "An asset generally CAN be destroyed by its owner by announcement, subject to modification by its backing document.".
Therefore we can destroy shinies and pledges by announcement "An asset generally CAN be transferred (syn. paid, given) by announcement by its owner to another entity, subject to modification by its backing document. A fixed asset is one defined as such by its backing document, and CANNOT be transferred; any other asset is liquid." Therefore pledges can be transferred, only a rule defines them as a backing document.
