No they're not. The options are FOR, AGAINST, and PRESENT.
There's a distinction between the options available to the voters on a
proposal (FOR, AGAINST, PRESENT; defined by Rule 106) and the options
available to Agora on any Agoran decision (ADOPTED, REJECTED, FAILED
QUORUM; defined by Rule 955).
Since Rule 208 is generic to all Agoran decisions, not specific to
proposals, it seems to me that the options to which it is referring
are the latter set.
The significant distinction here is that between the options available
to the voters individually and the options available to Agora
collectively. For instance, if "Really Generalize Dependent Actions"
is adopted, then for dependent actions the former set will be
(SUPPORT, OBJECT) and the latter set will be (APPROVED, REJECTED).
Proto-proto: Re-factor each type of Agoran decision into its own rule;
define quorum as a default that can be overridden by the rule defining
a type of Agoran decision.
