I find that I broke R2550 a bit weird, because I was relying on your very on argument of " You could bid anything and say "hey, a rule change might make it possible, you never know."
If you want to Card me for "breaking fun", sure, but then state it as such and not R2550. Because hey, a rule change might make it possible, you never know. (Also, I was planning on retracting that and bidding for real to win the auction but oh well.)
