I'm saying "the proposal" CAN'T mean an actual proposal, because there was no proposal in my message, just the attributes of one. Agora regards the text i sent as entirely separate from the actual proposal, from my understanding. It's just the specifications. It entirely makes sense to interpret it that way because that's how the rules describe it: I was just "specifying its text and optionally specifying any of the following attributes". But this is still only one issue you've addressed: you can still totally create something that already exists, you just make it exist again, duplicating it. Arbitrarily restricting creation to things that don't exist is atextual given it's not any actual rules, and the rules already say you CAN create a proposal if you specify everything so it should work. -- secretsnail
