For what it's worth, as the author of Proposal 9332, the reading of "performing the single revision of [removing and inserting]" is certainly what I intended, and I see no reason why it should be "flatly impossible" to remove some text and insert some other text somewhere else at the same time. Rule 105, defining rule changes, just says that a proposal (or other instrument) can "amend the text of a rule"; it doesn't distinguish inserting text from removing it, or say only one sentence can be amended at a time, or anything like that. ~qenya
