I support. In addition to ais523's arguments, Rule 478/23 (in effect at the time of CFJ 2086), didn't contain the "unless otherwise stated" sentence. That legislatively-inserted text (by P6785, adopted August 2011) is a key point in the caller's arguments for the current cfj. That text makes CFJ 2086 out-of-date since the rule is no longer silent and the text of the rule now applies.
