Oh, if you want it to outpower AIAN, you'd have to repeal that first.
(However, that's the only issue with enacting it at, say, Power 4;
there's no power sufficiently high for a rule to have an effect on the
gamestate before it's enacted, i.e. despite not existing. Otherwise,
you could change the gamestate arbitrarily simply by mentioning the
possibility that such a rule might exist.)
