We shouldn't have to reexamine every new way of saying you take an action in worry of it not working for some entirely subjective reason, but I'm not sure if we can legislate that away. It's not very elegant to just codify in the rules "'I submit the following proposal X times:' doesn't work." and neither is it to codify that it does work. Is there any general clarification that would fix this? Maybe something like "If there is an ambiguity in an attempt to take an action, where it could either mean an attempt to take a possible action or an attempt to take an impossible action, it is instead an unambiguous attempt to take the possible action." -- secretsnail
