I disagree—just because a proposal provides the text of a document doesn’t mean
that the document is part of the proposal and is evaluated when the proposal
gains power. For instance, when a proposal creates a rule, the text of the rule
doesn’t gain power as part of the proposal (the proposal does use its power to
grant the rule power, which is the same thing I do). That being said, I’ll
adjust the wording to be more clear in my next iteration.
