The caller also provides this as an example:
"Repeal Rule 1698 (Ossification).
Enact a power 100 rule that procides, 'It is IMPOSSIBLE to change the Rules,
rules to the contrary notwithstanding.'"
Again, this is not a rule change. This time it consists of two rule changes,
and it is possible to cause each one of them in a four week period, as
described above.
A couple responses to the proto judgement:
1. The Ossification rule says "arbitrary rule changes to be made and/or arbitrary proposals to
be adopted"--that's plural changeS/proposalS. Based on the text of the rule, Agora is Ossified
if there is a combination of rule changes and/or proposals that are IMPOSSIBLE to adopt in a four
week period. And I think it's undisputed that there are combinations of rule changes that are
IMPOSSIBLE. For example, it would be IMPOSSIBLE to enact the following pairs of "rule
changes":
The rule says "changes", not "sequence of changes". Any number of
proposals could be inserted before or between your examples to make them
work; the rule does not check for specific sets.
