You'd also allow a Power=2 rule to trump a Power=3 rule with a 60%
supermajority, where currently a 75% supermajority would be required.
Pretty big

Not true. That paragraph doesn't prevent repeal of the rule at all.
Also, if you want to change the precedence mechanism without repealing
R1482, all you have to do is amend R1482 to delete that paragraph.

Curse you, Maud. Now I am thinking of it. I shouldn't be. I've got
two proto-proto entirely new systems lined up.
HOWEVER: Is it possible to repeal R1482 with its silly "protective"

No change to the Ruleset can occur that would cause a Rule

So we'll still need a mutability index, or something equivalent, you
just don't want it tied to precedence.
There's a basic problem with this. Consider the whole class of
systems where precedence is a partial ordering among r

As for precedence, there is almost certainly a nice system out there
