Hm, so we just need a reason for it to be in the rules. Maybe some sort of
CFJ reward based thing, so there's incentive to approve a CFJ machine such
as this one? I've thought about this a few times but I don't really know
what to do about it, as playing with CFJs is bad juju, so incentivizing
judgements one way or another is generally frowny, and creating them is
frowning, and messing with assignment of them is frowny...

But mostly, I find the complexity placed upon the officer and the officer
alone to be excessive for this particular rule (needs a "reasonably
determinable" policy of policy determining or the like.)
