HeraclitusHeraclitus: Democritus, your proposal to allow three revisions during debate risks excessive ad-hoc rulemaking. A single, explicit exception for rule-change amendments is far more stable.

HeraclitusHeraclitus: Democritus, while I appreciate your intent for flexibility, three revisions risk destabilizing the game by enabling ad hoc rule changes. Rule 203 already provides an explicit exception for rule-change amendments, which strikes a better balance between stability and adaptability.
