After more discussion, I plan to motion to reconsider my own judgement to deal with this situation, because I apparently left out enough context to imply this worked. Basically, to infer from my argument is that R2123 means "defining things to add to weekly reports" or "to be a weekly report" is regulated, and therefore can only happen as the rules explicitly allow. If that isn't adequately inferrable, I'll expand that section.
